2004 Toyota Matrix Wagon XR AWD 4dr Wagon (1.8L 4cyl 4A)
AWD Matrix  aka "Snowball"
 We bought this car for my wife to use, since it was Super White, my daughter called it "Snowball".  Its been fun to own and we realy like how functional it is.  It parks and has the fuel economoy of a small sedan, (we get about 31 mpg on the highway a little less in the city), the capacity of a wagon and the AWD of a SUV.  While the engine could use additional hp, I am willing to accept it for better fuel economy.  While I wasn't too happy with the looks of the car, it does grow on you.  After all, its kinda hard to go wrong with a Toyota!
