Oh man, the new Vibe looks nice. From the pix of the headlights in the sheets, Matrix looks like it'll look way better.

I agree, albeit a conservative change I think the American consumer will embrace this change.

The guys that work for Toyota say we are NOT getting the Blade...and the Matrix will not look like the Blade. So I don't know if I believe them or the on-line magazine. I guess just wait and see. I wouldn't think Toyota would already replace the Matrix name, its a good selling car and strong name.

So is there anyway you can compare the new Vibe to the new Matrix design without getting in trouble, based on the picture above?

just kidding!!

I actually like this new version of the Vibe, it looks good! Better than the current by far. I like that its more athletic and aggressive stance.
