2012 Yaris gripes - Toyota Yaris Forums

I prefer the more aggressive look of the 2012 Yaris over the rounder appearance of the earlier model. I particularly was drawn to the front fascia of the SE model. As far as gripes...I second a few on my SE manual transmission:

1. No center armrest.
2. No interior release or manual release of any sort for the hatch. (Will not open if the battery is down).
3. Rear wiper is set up for right hand drive.

The steering, brakes, and handling of the SE model are superb. Quick, tossable, and tight. So much like my 1st generation VW GTI. Seats are very comfortable for me.
