Yaris vs MR2 Spyder

[regal]

I am not into racing or autocross, my EG Civic with Koni suspension was perfect. The Yaris in sharp turns on the road is just not elagant, it bobs and weaves and snaps at my spine. I'm not looking to drive wrecklessly, but in a way I am a connoisseur of auto handling. Also understand that I live in a hilly area with curvy rural roads.

The stock Yaris just isn't fun, I like a rough ride where you feel the road, but I hate being "jerked around." The stock yaris is driving me thru turns instead of me driving it if that makes sense.

regal,
I just read a post of yours saying that your Yaris is box-stock. To compare a Civic with Koni's to a stock Yaris is just plain silly. I also notice you are trying to hitch a ride in a suspension-modded Yar. Great idea, but Puh-LEEZ stop ranting about bad handling until you've had that ride.

Agreed, just trying to discern if I should spend the $'s on the suspension.

With the Civic the Koni suspension was a proven upgrade with actual slalom results etc. There just isn't any info on what you get for your dollars, the only tests I have seen are Yarii with full coil-overs.
