Saw this today driving around Glendale, CA

Couldn't get a shot from the front, sorry.

Umm... that looks exactly like a current gen Yaris liftback?

That's the TRD body kit hobo edition.

Yeah it's definitely the current gen. cruising by the Galleria Mall. I guess the driver was just whoring for attention, which as you know is common among SoCal peeps. I says he's just about ready to move-up to ricer territory...

I agree with Thirty-Nine. It actually might be this one:

The front is a sedan (you can see it by the rear windows which are not as round as a 5-door hatchback") and the rear is from a hatchback. Also notice the "bump" on the back of the roof where both models come together. (like the one I posted)

That's what I was thinking, but it was the weird roofline that gave it away to me.

I wonder what the purpose of that/this car is? Why would Toyota build a sedan with the rear hatch? It just looks weird.

bringing back the station wagon? lol

I took those pics Wednesday, August 3rd. It had all sorts of instrumentation inside and the dash was all taped up as well. I asked the guy driving it what it was and he didn't really have any to say, that he just got paid to drive it around.

Could be the same mule they used for the European model. Now just used to tweak the US model.
