What age are people here? Curious what age group is buying this car. - Page 5 - Toyota Yaris Forums

DonnyRebel · 08-20-2006, 12:07 AM

I'm 50, an empty nester wannabe (2 daughters). I bought the Yaris for it's value. I bought an SSR last year and now that its officially a collector car, I needed something that got 40 mpg, cost under 15k, AND hold its value (to keep miles off my truck).

The Yaris is the only (new) car that fit that criteria. I could've bought an Aveo, but I know in 3 years it'd be a worthless piece of junk.........

24 here. Technically my 1st car since the last one was always in my mom's name. Had been looking at used cars but any I liked started and fairly high prices and kept their value so it was almost pointless buying it used. At first was set on buying the Scion xA until one day coming across a Yaris banner ad while checking out Edmunds.

25.

Wanted a car to get me to Toronto easily, so I no longer had to bus it on weekends to see friends and when I was going to Toronto to see DJs I wanted to see when they are in town (at least once a month, if not every other weekend).

Wanted a car GREAT on milage, not overly expensive, and one that would last a long time w/o me needing to drop massive $$ on repairs and maintenance all the time. Wanted a car I could consistenly rely on and not worry about - one really well built

The Yaris (a TOYOTA) was that... and that I got a car that I fucking love how it looks and is so cool/cute was a massive bonus that has me even more in love w/ my choice of the Yarii!
