Actually, the Vibe is styled by Pontiac, whereas the Matrix is styled by Toyota. The two share a platform and mechanicals, but do not share a single body panel.

The Vibe is assembled at NUMMI in CA, and the Matrix is assembled somewhere in Canada.

I am not sure what a Voltz looks like, but I have heard of it on the Vibe forum that I frequent, but I do know that the Vibe exterior was designed by Pontiac.
Still a Toyota :P

Its still a Dodge. It performs good now but wait about 5 years when the trans start to fail. Oh yea, the new hemi has this pin that falls during highway cruising for better gas milleage. It runs on only 4 cylinders untill you give it the gas. The pin engages and disengages in 20 miliseconds. What happens when this pin fails? Will you be stuck with 8 cylinders or 4? I think i'll stay away from Chrysler until the reliability issues work out.
