Yeah, the US gallons vs. whatever you call your gallons is often confusing. I'm also assuming that you have the 1.3 L engine that we can't have.

OK "Imperial" sounds like a throwback from about 1900 when there was a British Empire!

Yes, it's a 1.3: what do you guys have, the 1.5? Couldn't get that when I bought the Verso.

In North America the only engine available for all Yaris is the 1.5l.
