Where's the Toyota Matrix?

[jl75]

Can anyone tell me if there is a Toyota Matrix in GT4? I read the car list & its on there but I havent found it in the game...Please? Can someone help me?

It's sold in the Toyota dealer as a Toyota Voltz. Or you can spring for the ugly...er version, the Pontiac Vibe.

I dont think there is need for this kind of attitude here, cause everybody has their own favourite cars. And also there isnt a toyota matrix in the game but as vonie said, there is the voltz.

It's a shame that Kazunori Yamauchi makes the same mistakes again and again leaving some cars out and giving us 3 plus versions of cars that really no one wants to drive. Cars are beutyful machines and some look fast even standing still, and people want to give them a spin. I own a matrix and I would have liked to drive it arround in GT4. The truth is, it would not be fun in the racing aspect of the game. But cars like the Scion Tc, Mazda 3 SP5 among others should make the cut. I cant unerstand how can Kazunori Yamauchi put the Scion XB and XA and not the Tc.

I did try the voltz and put the wheels of a subaru to look more like a Matrix and lowered the ride height.

Here is what I would have love to see!

I'd always thought that the closest thing to the Matrix was the Corolla RunX Z Aero Tourer... Oh well...

Does it suck? Objectively and subjectively, it's not as good as many of the compacts in its power range, but it's an okay car.

The game was rushed into completion so many things didn't make it into the game.

Just hope that it's in the new version coming out soon.

Yes, he can. And "in before the lock" is a bannable offence so i would steer clear of those.

Just a heads up.

Was the Scion tC even out when the game came out??

I also agree that we don't need 527 versions of the Skyline, and 249 version of the NSX. We could have seen so many cars that didn't make the game.

True, but making 45 clones of a car uses up very little additional computer modeling time, especially if you just have to add a scoop or a wing. They probably made 50 different clones in the same amount of time it takes them to make 2 completely seperate cars.

They could really have axed some of the FWD econoboxes that nobody cares about and done extraordinarily popular sports cars that they missed, like the FB RX-7, and some more classics, like the RX-2, RX-3, and RX-4, all of which are fabulous cars. I would have especially liked to see the authentic "Godzilla defense force" RX-2 in the game, lol.

No, but the 3-Series BMW was not out in the States when the game was released but It was in the game. Im sure it was out in Germany though.

We will never know what KY is thinking. Yet I do wonder why the Vibe and Voltz are in the game with the same drivetrain. Why not include the 4WD version offered?

Does it suck? Objectively and subjectively, it's not as good as many of the compacts in its power range, but it's an okay car.

I've tried the Voltz as well and the power isn't TOO bad but the transmission really hurts it; only a 4 speed.

Oooooo-kie dokie.

We're done with this thread now. GT5 wishlists go in the GT5 Car Wishlist forum, random insulting comments go in the banned user log and IBTLs go into the special cannon we have.

jl75 - you have your answer, and I apologise for all the dross (bar three or four good posts) that followed.
