Can't say we didn't see it coming with all the whining Koa has done lately! You know what he is like sometimes!
Hope he doesn't leave the forum or become a duck (damned **** filter) or the clutter here could get bad!

Damn nice trade, it has lower mileage then mine. *suicide* I like how the speedometer has a red circle so u feel fast at any speed. lol

*wish they still have the one with 2ZZ that was on my shopping list for a long time.

In a Matrix, you red line all day, err day! No matter what speed or RPM, you're pushing it to the MAX!

Koa · 03-19-2015, 01:47 PM

I drove it for 50 miles at 4k+ rpms in second and sometimes third gear so I indeed was pushing it to the max. The shittier car I drive, the higher my road rage and aggressiveness

Had Prius, Corolla and then Camry but never that masterpiece.
Jealous.

hopefully you're not on suicide watch. FRS to Matrix. Hopefully Keanu came with the car. You sir are heading on that downhill spiral to groundhog day. Please snap out of it and come back to the dark side.

Matrix > FR-S

Zyo81 · 03-19-2015, 04:03 PM

Um yeah, I think I'll go the classic route and trade my fr-s for a yugo.

Honestly though, I used to drive a 2004 Camry with the V6. Holy hell I loved that car. The power band felt super smooth, plenty of power and it was comfortable as fuck. I'd probably buy another if I could find one reasonably priced. And I could easily see it replacing the FRS to be totally honest. Although, maybe the replacement thing has more to do with nostalgia than anything else.

love this car more and more.. legit raced a cut-spring honda (with lca's at least) on the on-ramp and won while going to Autozone to pick up some lucas ethanol additive and lunch for my secretary and I.

He then did a really aggressive ricer flyby but I didn't hear the vtec, so joke's on me. Not a big victory but I'll take it. I would have recorded it but I was too busy rowing the L-2-3 auto selector

(don't preach to me about racing on public roads, I live my life one 1/4 mile at a time)

Wait... wait hold up. You're telling me that the Matrix came with Popeyes? That changes everything, I need to trade in ASAP.

Pics of said secretary or BS!
And exactly why does she need fuel additive as well as lunch?
