Interview: Jareds 2nd gen Matrix

[@smack680]

I think first gen is still better for looks and modding, but they are getting harder to find in good condition.

[@toastermadz7108]

On the blue Matrix, what is that rear wing? I've been looking for a wing and haven't found one that I like until I saw this one. If you could tell me where to find that one specifically that would be awesome!

[@antbankzbruh]

It's an OEM m-theory/trd spoiler

[@toastermadz7108]

@@antbankzbruh I notice that the Matrix that had the spoiler was 2003-2008. So now I guess my question is, do you think it will it fit on a 2009?

[@antbankzbruh]

@Toastermadz highly doubt it, most anything is doable with modification tho

[@chaosbeup]

I daily a 1st gen xr. I cant get on the 2nd gen

[@antbankzbruh]

They are not as popular but still cool I'd recommend there 1.8L and not the troublesome 2.4L

[@chaosbeup]

@@antbankzbruh your xrs is SWEET. Xrs boys one day. For now XR.

I love the fact you are starting a little bit of a community here with the Matrix's, I'm planning to pick up a 2nd Gen (2009 Matrix XRS) this coming week in dark grey, dits a automatic but doesn't have to many miles(Actually it has below 80'000 miles and had only 1 owner). Can't explain how excited I am. Even though dits automatic it is definitely no Slouch. I've driven a stick shift Corrolla S pushing about 170hp to the front wheels and that car was no Slouch, definitely a sleeper. Since this car is the 1st year of the 2nd Gen Matrix, is there any odd issue's I should be worried about, because for the most part this car is basically a sportier version of a camry with the same motor, sort of the equivalent to the 6th gen Toyota Celica's with there infamous 1.8 Liter 1zz. On a side note I used to own a really nice red 97 Celica ST Limited, but I remember doing a muffler and resonator delete on that car with a 2/5 inch pipe from the cat back, out of all the cars I ever straight piped that one was definitely the loudest, you would of thought the car had no cats, plus maintenance on that car was extremely cheap, I remember I had a cracked exhaust manifold and it only cost me $400 for a new one, that was for parts and labor all together 😅
