I picked it up this morning when I saw the Tein Yaris on the cover. They do a shootout between the Tein Yaris, Turn3 Versa, and the Scion Evolution Xa. The Spoon Fit was a no show due to mechanical probs. Didn't matter though. The Fit ran with the same setup on the same track (albeit with a slightly different configuration), but the Yaris still ran a faster time. The Yaris was almost 4 seconds faster than the Versa and the Xa, and 2 seconds faster than the Fit's time. Not bad for a car that was originally set up to run with a supercharger, they had to take it off for this shootout.

Maybe because I own a Yaris, maintain a Yaris, and make payments on a Yaris that I might be biased towards it, but I feel hands down that it's the best B-segment car out there. My car is a USDM 3-door which is a very no-frills basic econobox, but looking at it from a tuner's view, I feel it's a better car than offered here (in the US) in it's class.
