Those cars are fugly.

Honestly the Nissan is kinda cool if it was 3 door and the Honda I would like more if it was 3 door. Being 5 door they just look silly to me. I really don't even know why our cars come with a back seat. The hatch is a place to load up stuff for me not people.

The first thing I did was fold the back seat down, and it'll stay that way barring unforeseen circumstances. For me, a car is a sort of overgrown motorcycle with a heater and a lot more cargo capacity.

well, I have been considering stripping mine like nimble but I have yet to go that far, My headrest and rear deck board have been in the closet for weeks, I like being able to see out the back window and drop that seat down at moment

Thingking about spending couple grands to make it feel more faster.....etc.
I think it's will end up paying around $22-$30k for the yaris.
My sedan plus apr is $18k.
Turbo-$3 to 4K
New spring Struts - $300-400 bucks.
Etc...

Yeah but the best part about that is the fact that you have a Truly Unqiue car! That no one will have!

Lets be honest here... the Fit and the Versa FEEL more like small Station Wagons... where the Yaris feels more like a Go cart... And we all know you would end up spending money on those cars too...for much the same reason! Plus name me another car for 25 grand that will give you the Gas Milage, Space, and performance of your supped up Yaris...

But then again...Image is REALLY important to some people!

Still i am really love my yaris, it's the cheapest car out there but still feel and look like a Sport Exotic Car.
If the shift stick is where around the Stereo as, like the new Honda Odyssey, and the stering wheel a little bit smaller, or similliar like Civic. i will be alot happier
25 grand will not get me another car that got the same Gas Mileage as Yaris, but it's sure i will spend it on Camry Hybrid.
Don't take me wrong about Yaris, Image is really not important to me. Or else i woulnd't got it.

If you think the Yaris looks and feels like a sport exotic... you need to get out more.

The granny SUV-style seats and full on plastic interior definitely don't remind me of Italian leather bucket seats. And nothing about the mere presence of a hatchback gets me thinking about midship engines, automatic hard top convertables, butterfly wing doors, nor roadster headrest fairings.

I love my Yaris... but "exotic" it is not. :P

That doesn't sound like a Toyota thing though. It sounds more like you'd end up doing those mods to just about any car.
