I have waiting a long time for Toyota to release a 3-Door Hatchback. the last one (that I can think of) was the Corolla FX (AE82). So I can't wait until the time comes to get my Yaris, Black Hatch, of course.

Oh, I almost had one of those, but I was only 16 and I didn't have the $2000 the guy wanted. Arg, the car was absolutely perfect.

That is very interesting. supposedly toyota thought most folks would want the sedan. I myself wanted the liftback. No complaints here. Love the car.

Toyota Australia havent sold nearly as many SEDANs as they'd hoped --- Hatches are in demand and theres a 3-4 month wait if you dont pick something that's in stock -- most sedans (depending on colour) can be had within a month!

Im waiting till the end of the financial year to go bargaining at dealers :)

Nope ......... Opera-Dura-Ace. I prefer the comfort, and stiffness of steel. This is probably the lightest steel bike ever made at approx. 17 lbs. Do YOU have a Dogma?????

no no no - no way I'm going to buy a bike costs more than a Yaris ;) And with a Dogma frame + DA and decent wheels...

I have a boring trustworthy Trek 5200 with Ultegra on some race lites... if it ever breaks - then I'll probably get a Giant TCR Advanced with the ISP... maybe get some lightweights ;)

Just to put this all in perspective, in Toyota's first full month of sales in April they sold 6,393 Yari in the US. Even if everyone who's voted so far actually owns one we're about .004% of the owners. :P

Nice figures. Out of those 6393 i've yet to see one here in Sacramento. Though there is a smartcar in town. Drop a GSX motor in that and your set

I just looked at the hatch vs the sedan. The sedan reminds me of the
corolla S. What do you guys think?

ninababy · 05-04-2006, 11:23 AM

hello! im a newbie and i voted for the liftback.
i was originally looking at the mini but then i stumbled on the yaris and got hooked! i love its cute design...i dont know anything about mechanics so im just really going by looks and fuel efficiency, of course. im petite so i think the yaris will be perfect for me. i even test drove one a few weeks ago and im still drooling. :) ill be getting mine hopefully soon.
i think this is a nice forum so hello to everybody! :)

Uglyboyed · 05-04-2006, 11:48 AM

im going with the sedan cause it more roomy and im 6'2 so i would look like a clown in a circus if people saw me come out the liftback.

Macel · 05-06-2006, 11:41 AM

I voted for the sedan, but Im somewhat undecided. Honestly, I like the looks of the sedan a bit more.. The liftback is a little too cutesy for me (of course, with a yaris, yer gonna get cutesy whether its a liftback or a sedan)..

why? · 05-06-2006, 10:30 PM

As long as it is a very attractive woman saying it is cute it is all good.

riceboy · 05-06-2006, 11:27 PM

LB for me, eventhough the sedan is put together quite nicely!

Uglyboyed · 05-07-2006, 02:31 PM

Aaaww C'mon guy!!! Where's the men around here? I don't wanna be cute.. The LB is as cute as a button to me. And most people that will see me driving will nost likly think it my girlfriends car or somethin.. (Even though the sedan s isn't too far away from the LB) at least is a lil farther away from "cute as a button"

If I wanted an aggresive looking car I wouldn't have bought a Yaris.
