i have a 2WD 2004 Matrix XR with the 1ZZ-FE and my tops was 130, the engine takes a while but has plenty of vigor in the 0-80mph range. and mine is a 4-speed Auto
I have an 03 vibe gt 1.8 6 speed same matrix xrs I had it to 125 just this past weekend on accident, i was passed by a gti and crx and i was traveling around 70mph, so i down shifted to third to try and catch them, well the gt has VVTL-i like drunkennewfiemidget said, and this pulled me up to speed real fast, i was blowing by them and decided to look down sure enough 125 damn and it still handled well and still had more, most people see these cars and laugh, until you blow their doors off.
i have an AWD mautomatic matrix...slowest piece of crap ever lol
how ever i always say how ultimate the car would be if you coast get it AWD Xrs dohc VVT-i engine and 6speed the car would be amazing but...doesnt exist
Toyota screwed up the AWD pretty bad. It's slower than a snail in molasses in winter, and doesn't have the option of the high output motor thanks to the crap viscous coupler for the rear diff that would be destroyed in no time if you put any real power to it.
but i do gotta admit that AWD hasent let me down i was cruising down the highway going 70 in a blizzard last year and yesterday i drove it up a really steep grass hill lol
i actually drove an 06 xr automatic the other day. It goes 100, but after that the car really struggles though. My guess is that top speed is around 117 mph if given enough road lol
ROFL!!!!!!!!!! this makes me want to go make a video of my 95 pickup with nearly 200k miles do 0 to 110 in 1/4th the time it took you to go from 60 to 100
haha wow i have an 04 and it goes 130 with ease

buttt i cant afford it so im stuck with the matrix witch has been through absolute hell and still manages to start up every single morning =]
YanYan1337 2 years ago
The XRS (2zz) motor is VVTL-i.
And the AWD only came in automatic. Even a 5-speed AWD wasn't an option.

yea =[
i wish the awd came in 5 speed id have so much fun

you must have the 1.8l. my speedo goes to 140, and i have a vibe gt
Michaelsdick 2 years ago
The Vibe GT is a 1.8L aswell. (Unless it's the 09+.)
It's just a different motor with a different cam profile, valve setup, shorter stroke, larger bore.
