I come from the BMW world so no need to let me know about the S or forced induction. You paid just under $18K? That's a lot. If you can find an S for anywhere near $23K, let me know and I'll trade in my Yaris. There is no way that you are going to get an S for that price and if you could, everybody would be driving around in one. By the time you even remotely option out the Mini you are upper 20's...ad in the S and closer to 30.

I would've gotten the turbo mini S instead of my yaris if it had came out in 2006... You can look at it this way... 40MPG AND 175HP 6 speed of FUN ?? Not to mention the sweet and HUGE moonroof ??

I would be driving a Swift right now rather then my xD if we got the Japanese/Euro Model :

are you sure you don't want a 2009 Mini S instead ?? I'm sure you'll have much more fun driving the turbo that does 5.8L/100km (40MPG)

yaris is all about the hatch and cute holders. if you dont liek all the compartments and holders then you and yaris are odviously not ment to be..... honestly.

DefStarYaris · 12-10-2008, 11:23 PM

I'm very happy with my Yaris. I've had mine for almost a year and I still enjoy driving it, getting great mileage, and having my first new car.

Sure, I know that there are much nicer cars out there but I'm completely satisfied.

I've owned toy's in the past that ran nearly forever without many break downs.
I refuse to spend $400 on a car payment,just to get me to work and back.
It's much easier to budget my monthly income driving a toyota.
I love my Yaris.

Agree. The reason I bought a Yaris is for good, reliable daily transportation. Throw some springs on the car with a lip spoiler and it looks good too!

junorico24 · 12-11-2008, 04:10 PM

NO! I aint happy wid it wanna dowse it with petrol and burn it. Nah, just kiddin ya'll lol. I wub it.

YariSpeed · 12-15-2008, 09:31 PM

I'm still happy with it...still puts a smile every fill-up...

YAR1S · 12-15-2008, 10:19 PM

I still find myself looking over my shoulder at my yaris... am I the only one? lol, I just cant stop looking and smiling.... :)

Fishbulb · 12-15-2008, 11:55 PM

I loved the Yaris from the first day I laid eyes on one. I finally have a fish of my own now.. :)

ZING · 12-16-2008, 07:31 AM

Haha I do that too. I "watch" my car as I walk into work.

Then I look out of the window at it all day.

I think it's plenty cute (and I'm so glad I opted for the '08 vs. the '09; not only was it cheaper, but for some reason, that just looks a bit CUTER???), and what I find I do more than anything is see another one on the road, think "What a cute car," then realize, "It's a Yaris!" But it's still too tall for my taste...

Phaeton · 12-16-2008, 09:10 AM

This is a cheap car, yes it's a Toyota but it's still a cheap econobox. If you expect anything more, maybe you should have bought a more expensive car.
I've put 37,000 miles on mine in 8 months, Never even had a flat tire.
It get's 40-45 mpg every tank as long as I go the speed limit.
It does everything it was designed to do.

eht13 · 12-16-2008, 10:32 AM

Very happy with mine so far. It was bought to be our second car, and to be more reliable than the car it replaced (and with lower cost of ownership, etc.). But from the start I was surprised at the fit and finish of it, how solid it feels, and how well it drives... while still being reliable and fuel efficient. It's growing on me more every day.

derickveliz2 · 12-16-2008, 12:27 PM

I'M SUPER HAPPY,

THE ONLY THING I DON'T LIKE ABOUT "YARIS" IS THAT...

I CAN'T HAVE A LB AND SEDAN AT THE SAME TIME!
