I was perusing the magazine section of my local Publix grocery store when lo and behold what graced the front page of Sport Compact Car magazine? None other than the Toyota Matrix! These guys already have a Toyota Matrix and are having their way with it. I urge you all to run, not walk to the nearest magazine rack and check out the January issue of Sport Compact Car. This issue comes complete with a poster of the Matrix (Sweeeeeeet) as well as a number of specs that are not currently available on the pdf spec sheet. There are two 4-5 page articles devoted to nothing but the Matrix. The first article is about how the stock vehicle tested and how it compares to the Celica (which it shares engines with). The second article is the first part in a series that will document the tweaking the car will be subjected to in the pursuit of ultimate performance.<br><br>Catch ya later,<br>Brantly

Thanks for the link, very informative.

I'll definately have to go and check that out! Matrix poster. . . .ahhhhhhhhh. . . *slobber*.....

Maybe I'm missing something here, I don't know, but I didn't see this issue with the Matrix on it. The only one that I did see had a picture of a ford focus on the front cover.

January '02 Sport Compact has the Matrix on the front cover. Check out this link: <a href=http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/archives/features/feature02_0102.jsp target=new>http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/archives/features/feature02_0102.js\ p</a><br><br>Brantly
