I have decided I really DO like about the '09 is that orangey/bronze color it is available in. I am playing with the idea of getting a new AWD, and it is between the Matrix and the Impreza, but Subaru has no really good colors like the Matrix does. Of course, Matrix has no available manual for the AWD models like Impreza does, so an impasse has been reached....
#108 of 179 auto dimming mirror by matrixgirl09 Jun 26, 2008 (5:07 am)
Anybody find an auto dimming rearview mirror w/compass included for the 2009 matrix? I have seen an article or two stating that the cars had it but the toyota dealership said they don't have it. I guess it was an option on the 2008 model, would it be the same one? also anyone get a trunk bike rack? Replies to this message: swng (Jun 29, 2008 10:11 am)

Replying to: matrixgirl09 (Jun 26, 2008 5:07 am) Hi matrixgirl09, I do have the auto dimming rear view mirror with compass on my 09 AWD Matrix with the Sports Package. I am in BC, Canada and sorry that I don't know if the same is available elsewhere.

No it's not available for the US ones, at least not yet. An aftermarket one was around 200.00 and I am not going to put it in if it's not guaranteed to work.   For the 200.00 I could get a GPS (like a tom tom ) instead of the compass. I haven't decided yet.   The mirror is only a problem when its real dark out and there is a truck behind me.. since we have more daylight now during my commute it isn't a problem. I don't drive a lot at night right now. Replies to this message: swng (Jun 30, 2008 8:16 pm) dchev (Sep 11, 2008 7:37 pm) matrixgirl09 (Sep 12, 2008 5:43 am) dchev (Sep 12, 2008 9:28 pm)

#113 of 179 2009 Matrix MPGs (2.4L engines only!) by musicmanmu Aug 04, 2008 (7:47 am)
Hey everyone,   Finally going to trade in my gas hog SUV for a smaller car in the next month or two.   I've been looking at the 2009 Matrix/Vibe, but I'd prefer to have the 2.4L engine. I commute about 120 miles round trip for my job M-F (all interstate), and I'm hoping to get about 30 MPGs on the highway.   What have your experiences been? Thanks!

#114 of 179 09 MATRIX EXT WIND NOISE >60MPH by bbrownpersonal Aug 09, 2008 (8:30 pm)
Anyone have this problem. More higher pitch and gets louder 65 -70ish to 80. Suspected wind baffle around antenna. Or, wind seepage under the cross rack covers in the black gutter. Dealer acknowledges hearing but hasn't a clue and not too interested to find source. Traded 04 Matrix - nothing close to this problem. They did superficial check of door hang and gaskets. Seem to be dismissive since not acknowledgiing as something Toyota has found in others and issued a TSB on. If you have issue or thought about how to get attention to problem, pls advise. Next message not going to be as polite.

Replying to: musicmanmu (Aug 04, 2008 7:47 am) MSN is running aa story right now that compares cost/mpg for a number of cars in the Matrix's class (Fit, Versa, Xd etc.) The Matix is not even listed - I guess because of the FE hit the 2.4 is. The 1.8 engined Base version as well as earlier models would fare quite well in this type of comparison - begging the question why would Toyota make the larger engine standard on the 2 higher trim levels when it is mpgs that sell these days????
