Love My Matrix XRS
 I bought this car with 19,000 miles on it.  At the time, I was unaware of the particulars of the XRS trim level.  I liked the idea of a manual... bonus was that it is a 6-speed.  It is the best of both worlds because I can haul the kids around, then my band equipment, then on the weekends unload it and cruise around town with a little power under me.  Even with the extra power my, mostly highway, fuel economy is around 30 mpg.  Have almost 50,000 miles and not even a hint of trouble.  One of the best, most fun to drive cars that I have ever owned.
