Things you would like to see?

I used to belong to a Nissan forum for my last vehicle and several times we were asked questions from people who claimed to be Nissan reps wanting to know concerns that were arising about their products. It would not supprise me if Toyota looks at these forums from time to time to see what people who actually care about the product think. So lets give them something to think about.

Here is the question. If you could add (within moderation considering this is a subcompact car) some options to the Yaris or even change a few things, what would they be?

Here is mine
--- Add a center armrest as standard
--- Add a tachometer to every Yaris
--- Add a real temp guage
--- Maby have the rear window on the L/B open
--- Add a rear hatch release next to the fule door release for the H/B

Yeah....the flat folding seat thing does get on my nerves....I want it so bad, but I know it would be too expensive to trade up.

I want it to look and perform exactly like a Ferrari, without changing the price.

I want it to have the resale value of a Bentley, power of a Ferrari F1, speed of a bullet, reliabliltiy of a Toyota and the purchase price of a 2nd hand Lada.

Also want it to come standard with cruise control, twin turbo, esc, abs, satnav, twin mounted guns on the roof and a outside public address system.

also: variable intermittent wipers, heated side mirrors, and more insulation in the engine firewall (one of the most intrusive engine noise in any car i've owned).

of course, some people will say that adding all this will raise prices ridiculously, but MOST of these items are options/standard for the yarii competition (fit and versa).
