From 1988 to 1998 I owned a FIAT CITY (small, really small pickup) I love my little FIAT.
I wouldn't hesitate to get another FIAT, they are awesome little machines. D.

My FIAT CITY was made in Brazil, materials were not first quality, specially electrical connections but besides that the DESIGN and overall was great, my Yaris reminds me a lot about how good it was.

Really I thought they were going to do the American unveil at the 2011 show? Well damn I guess I will have to look for something else to snap pictures of... Maybe the new prius mpv?!

They might not reveal the USDM version until the New York auto show or wait until the fall. From what I heard the new Camry will be revealed at that time.

I saw a Nissan Versa hatch while I was stuck in traffic today and thought, where else I have I seen that rear door shape before? And then the new Yaris popped into my head. Bleh, is there any hope of a 3 door hatch coming out, or is it strictly a 5 door model?

The so called marketing geniuses feel that most will just want the 5-door. And since almost every other company is no longer offering 3-doors, Toyota won't lose many customers. |

not too quirky looking, 5 door hatch will sell much better than the current hatch ever did.
toyota has not been interested in making anything look too radical in many years now. the current hatch was not so radical as it was quirky and cute. if this one is less noisy, doesnt handle so poorly, has better shifting dynamics, and doesnt look so pathetically cheap on the interior, it will appeal to more people, imo. |

Love the way the Yaris handles, just be sure to get the rear stabilizer bar.

id say the yaris has the worst clutch uptake of any small car ive ever driven. the shifter is rather clunky as well (not too mention that horrid rubber boot). we all know about the horrible seating position in relation to the steering wheel(easily would be fixed with telescoping wheel). my corolla shifting feel is like butter in comparison, much smoother and easy to find a comfortable position. a cheap car doesnt have to look and feel so cheap...im holding out hope for the new yaris. |

now, ive read the new version is actually lighter than the previous version. if they get this over 40 mpg hwy, it will be a class leader. i could easily live with that. ill take one in black
