perhaps, but then why would toyota run a one-make-race series in Japan and other countries if there is no performance in its heart?

hey the corolla is considered an economy car, it got a trd supercharger to boot. so that is just f'n wrong that the yaris is not getting any love.

Hopefully we all learned something from the TEIN Yaris in Siphon. You don't need huge horsepower to be fast on the track. That article has me basically rethinking everything when it comes to performance and this car.

And I think that is cool that they do im not saying they shouldnt. But what do most people think when someone says economy car. I dont think they get excited and say man I bet that thing is a blast to drive. Or man I bet that thing handles like it is on rails. All my cars have been economy cars so I know what they are capable of. I have had 2 festivas(I would have another but couldnt find one) and a 94 talon 1.8l and now the yaris. Course the sub compacts are getting more popular. I like that toyota offers some aftermarket style stuff for there cars. Course it is basicly just stuff that makes the car how it should of been from the factory.
