S Liftback for 2008
I just found this photo posted on the North American Toyota Pressroom site:
http://www.pressroom.toyota.com/Imag...T2007072791896 No other details or acknowledgements are on the site yet, but apparently Motor Trend has also announced there will be a Yaris Liftback S for 2008! |

I M H O all the Toyota sport models with the body kits look cheezy, that's a Yaris with the full options pkg with 2 ugly chunks of plastic . my dealer told me the sport mod for the 4 door was not gonna be offered in '08 as they coundn't sell them once people looked at the liftback. his words were "Toyota missed the boat when they made the sport 4 door " & that's my feeling anyway how can you call anything with 4 doors a sport model ?? I'm more happy with the clean look without the hunks of ABS . I'm gonna pull off the rear logo's anyway for that clean Black look ..............

I think the exterior looks just like RS Canadian model but with additional front lip skirt
Hopefully Canada can get that front skirt in 2008 model also.

I wish they'd forgo the useless body moldings and add some useful items like a tach and cruise control.

in motor trend it says the "S" liftback will come with OPTITRON GAUGES, wether or not that includes a tach remains to be seen.

In the 60's anything with 4 doors WAS a family car .. but each has his own taste .. I did state I M H O 1st off in the post & my Quote was from the owner of the dealership not a salesman .I don't talk to them .

The front skirt looks identical, but the sideskirt is different.
