Motorweek Retro Review Marathon

Post by ColonelPanic »

Motorweek is running another Retro Review marathon this weekend. First up is season 21 from 2001/2002. Something special made an appearance during their segment on the Tokyo Motor Show...

It's always fun to revisit how Toyota clearly knew which of the twins was the better one. :D

Your link goes to a private video.

It's timely that you posted this though because I just watched the Motorweek reviews of the Vibe and Matrix several days ago.

Good point about the link. I removed it since it was only accessible for last weekend when they were streaming.

The Vibe did make a brief appearance in part 1 of season 21 but not a full road test. Hopefully next time.

I've seen their Vibe review many times, but it'll be nice to be able to relive it as seen 20 years ago. :D
