This one is complicated... car has plenty of power and fun to drive. the only thing that I do not like is that the pedal is too sensitive on the starts. You have to be very gentle when you start from a stop because it will shake you, acceleration is too much and it is difficult to have a smooth start. This is really annoying. see full Toyota Matrix review
