um..........................no.

if anything, it is allowing you to drive more aggresively=worse mileage. im not saying it is a bad addition. the yaris is decidedly a poor handler through turns with all the body roll, so im sure its worth it for that alone.

I guess it's all a matter of perspective. I came out of a Civic Sedan, prior to that a PT Cruiser, and the Yaris S Sedan I got handles far better than either one of those, even without the sway bar, which is my next purchase for the car.
