I do not really like the exterior design. I tested It already in automatic transmission and it is way better ( no comparison possible) compared to the 2007, 2009 hatch, speed changes are smoother, interior design is nice. Even they put the buttons to deactivate trc/vsc. In our yaris we need to "enter" a code in order to deactivate it lol. Hybrid version coming out in June here in Switzerland but yaris TS might never come out again. Us guys might have the last yaris TS lol. They will be valuable. Keep them in a top shape my friends.

Really? a hybrid of the Yaris? I know they are making a Prius C that is going to be a smaller lighter Prius... maybe it's a US thing...

Thanks for the input

Watching him drive around some high school football field is pretty boring as well....

And none of his suggestions are any better than the Yaris, just more expensive. The Fiesta has transmission problems, the Chevy will have problems period, and the Accent is still not up to par with the Toyota.

That's the problem with U-Tube, anyone can make a video and everyone thinks it is a professional review...

I believe that that is what they call "dubstep". I've got some teenaged relatives that are into it... and I can't stand it. Absolutely horrible sounding... and almost all of it sounds the same...
