Tell me about it.

2) Why you think it's a great car to buy. This can go with number 1 as well. I'm already hooked. But I want you to pretend that you have to convince me to buy it, if you understand what I'm saying.

3) Where is a good place to access more information about the Yaris besides the dealership?

P.S. I'm hoping to learn a lot here. This forum seems really neat. And I've seen some pretty cool tricked out Yaris'. I'm pretty jealous.

1. Before my purchase, I made fun of my coworker so much driving one..hated the look of it, I called it the rebirth of a shitty Tercel/Echo...the automatic tranny looked like a twig stuck to the car's interior, etc...

I needed to save money on gas, so i bought it. I dislike the sensitive clutch, to this day. But the look of the car has grown on me. It's a very unique design not seen elsewhere and turns a lot of heads. I love it for taking me great distances. I love how it starts up w/o a fuss, gives me assurance i can make that tight turn through a corner even if i wasn't fully capable of doing. I like how the car manages to get past little areas and giving the driver second thoughts as to..will i fit or not~ The seats are comfy..my ex loved the ride and how quiet it is considering how much plastic is used inside it~
I use my car to commute to college/s, to work, go snowboarding with my friends in the winter and go to the beach w/ it. I have fit, myself and a passenger plus 6 snowboards in my hatchback no problem...
Last dislike on this car...cheap paint. Get the paint repainted because the front gets chipped pretty damn easily.

2. I think its a great car to buy because one, not too many people own one on the road vs a Civic or Prius. It's a car that fools one's eye...small on the outside, but damn roomy in the inside. This car is a great A to point B car for commuters, college students, and eco-huggers. If you are into heavy or light modding or..simply want a car w/ A LOT of potential and secrets behind every compartment....? This is the car to get.. you will hate this car for it's low power and plastics , but the love grows for this car over the coming months. I whined about the car being small, but found great usage after 5-6 months down the road ;)

I fi had to do it all over again? I'd get a 2010 5-door Liftback model, an imported RS version from Canada...or look into importing the Vitz RS from Japan...

I've always loved the Vitz. =) Well... Not always, but you get the point. =)
