The tires on the Matrix are surprisingly good! They're Firestone Firehawks. Very good tires and they ain't cheap. Remember, it's 300-400lbs heavier than a Celica. A Celica GT-S handles EXTREMELY well out of the box. The Matrix is a transfer vehicle.

I think it is definently worth the money however, they need to change the gear ratios to the GT-S's and make the big cam come on sooner. I'm sure it's a dog off the big cam...
