when i used to have my 07 yaris, ii recall boatloads of 2nd gen owners getting over 40 mpg with their mt Yarii when discussing such things.

this one is rated 2 mpg's higher, so getting over 40 will be even easier.

I seem to recall the Japanese designer streamlining the body for higher MPG and lower drag than the Gen 2 cars. Certainly looks sleeker, but I am biased.

Gen 2 cars are still awesome, just not my cup of tea.

The dealerships don't want to give me an out-the-door price quote.

How did you manage to get such a sweet deal?

shouldnt be coasting in neutral. coasting in neutral fails to take advantage of decel fuel cutoff.

Roxy1 , please don't mislead folks with a blanket statement like that. DFCO is great........ if you want to lose speed . I use it when it's appropriate. If you want to extend your coast/glide , you want to be in neutral , with ICE on or off. I do this whenever possible.
