Awww! It's so CUTE!

OK I need to know, especially from the Liftback owners. How many people do you show your car to and they say something to the effect "... it is just so cute!" Personally I do not mind. I like driving a cute car.

Every single girl that has seen it says it's cute, but they say that about my Boxster too, and my dog

I've gotten that from a co-worker. From my friends who have seen it and test drove it said basically "Congrats. It's an awesome car." Everybody who had seen it liked it. Even my dad!

OMG! All I heard from my friends when they first saw the Yaris was "cute". Drove me crazy for a bit, but it's all good now... loving the car too much to care

Heh. Heh, thanks for all the feedback. Seems like everybody that I show mine to says it is "cute". And also I think just like one or two people said that did not like it. But they where truck people. I am not into trucks.

Yeah I have also been asked if it is a hybrid. No one has asked me if it is an Electric... Yet. But I figure it is small enough. Heh.

EXACTLY, HYDE!! i NEVER got so many stares in ANY of my other cars (Black on Black Lexus on 20's, Side-sliding 240SX's, OR motorcycles). It's kinda odd, just like someone on YarisWorld talking about the crowds at car shows are more interested in the sub-compacts than the Exotics..kinda odd but refreshing.

Pulled in for petrol next to a newish beamer, young exec type (male) fillin up..........he looked............and looked.........at the yaris........... I said (lamely) it's the new Yaris, he said (also lamely) looks great.........(sigh)........

Moral of the story, why did he make the big spend on the 'image' vehicle, when all he would like is the hot little number I was driving??

This is one reason I bought the Yaris, I love the way people who spent 50+ on a car look at me and realize how the throw their $$ away. Of course some of them don't, but a majority of them do.

i remember this kid 16-20 driving this beat up civic with his gf and pulled up beside me at the bank, and they just kept starring and wont keep their eyes off it... my friend was like, wtf are they starring at, never seen an Yaris b4???
modded ones get even more attention. they really wonder why u mod up a entry lvl car like this. but at the same time, i dont really understand why ppl mod up these old G2 Integra, CRX or even new base model civics...
