Yaris of the Caribbean
I just came back from a Caribbean cruise that departed from Puerto Rico and hit St. Thomas, St. Maarten, Antigua, St. Lucia, and Barbados. I was amazed with how many Yaris/Vitz/Belta I saw throughout the trip. My wife and kids were amazed that I could get so excited about seeing Yaris's while on vacation.
On Puerto Rico, we rented a car to kill a few hours between the time we landed in San Juan, and when we could board our ship. In 4 hours of driving around, I saw hundreds of liftbacks and sedans. I saw 4 liftback colors there that I have never seen before in person: Dark metallic green (photo below from the Hertz rental car lot), orange, light blue metallic, and navy blue. On St. Thomas, I also saw quite a few liftbacks and sedans. I saw one orange one and one of the light blue ones there as well. Here's a silver one I snapped a picture of there: On St. Maarten / St. Martin we took a bus from the Dutch side to the French side and saw quite a few as well. I only saw red, white and silver liftbacks there: On Antigua, I only saw a couple of sedans, but our time on land was short there, as we spent most of the day snorkeling various shipwreck and reef sites from a boat. On St. Lucia, I saw lots of sedans, but only one liftback (a silver one that was for sale in front of a banana plantation) Finally, on Barbados, they were Vitz and Belta, rather than Yaris like on the other islands. I saw lots of sedans, and a handful of liftbacks, including this copper metallic one (different from the flat orange seen on Puerto Rico and St. Thomas). This copper Vitz had just been unloaded from a ship along with a couple of sedans and various other make/models of cars: |
