you said you were concerned with fuel efficiency, then later in the same paragraph mention that you like living dangerously.

just found that a bit ironic is all.

I did an emergency maneuver in my Yaris while taking my wife to the airport one morning. It was me, my wife, and my 2 kids. A 4X4 wooden board fell off a truck carrying a bulldozer or something fell into the road on the highway right ahead of me. I did the fastest high speed lane change I've ever tried, and successfully avoided the wood, not so for the SUV behind me. This is with the stock suspension and stock tires. The Yaris performed this beautifully. I think they are on crack, or it only pertains to the sedan.

The sedan performs perfect on high speed turns and what not. I love mine. Highly speed turns I feel the back end but that is like 80 in a 90 degree turn type stuff I am talking about.

I drove my S during the winter and had no issues with the car and its suspension...the only thing that sucked was the stock tires, which I am hoping to change before this winter season.

In Europe the Yaris is one of the safest cars in it's class.
The Euro-NCAP tested it.

My car is a Yaris 1.4 D-4d Linea Sol and has 7 airbags.

Gee, I made it through several years of rag top jeeps with no seat belts let alone air bags. Hell, my first couple pickup trucks had nice steel dashes and non safety glass. I guess when your time is up it really doesn't matter what you are driving. I do agree that all the safety features are nice, but you still are safer in your car then you are eating shit food for your short stay on this earth.
