actually what i've seen from the matrixvibe site i run is that the people who buy these cars generally tend to be 25-29 most...and second is aged 20-25, then under 20 and over 29 seem to be even.

all that extra room and utility are the main reason a lot of older, more practical-minded people get it. i'd say half just for that reason on the site alone....the other half are more like normal celica guys from here :)

no soccer moms yet :ugh: although them and the older people are probably the only guys who can afford TRD's stuff so that's why TRD is supercharging their cars first! :mad:

Dude..

So far I've seen some really NICE Matrixs...a bright yellow one and a BRIGHT ass RED ONE.

They were both driven by women in their 30's to 40's. This was yesterday and the day before.

And my wife wants one. And she already owns a WRX?

WTF...Toyota sure does know how to attract the women...

In all the right ways..heheh.

You will never see a TRD supercharged Matrix rollin in the streets so stop complaining. The CART pace car is the only one. I will give you the down low on that car.

READY???
Only one is being made.
The block on that motor is Criss Rado's test 2ZZ motor. (failed. not enough power can be maid from the 2ZZ block)
As you can see the feul rail is after market and there is a pressure regulator too.
That car is running the new AEM computer as management. (tunned by AEM)
And again ONLY ONE.

Any questions, feel free to email, and YES... My info is true.

Shant

By the way, that is an AEM feul press regulator.

I think Hotchkis is using the exact same supercharger on their second Celica Project Car (the red one).

just like there are old celica drivers there are old matrix drivers.... if i had to do a split i'd say there were older matrix drivers.....

you cant judge by the sites cause they obviously dont fall into the "enthusiast" category.
