Spending thousands for a "fashion accessory" like a Hummer, or any car over say $20,000 is such a waste as far as I'm concerned....society is so worried about how others perceive them, having this need to keep up with the Jones, or better them...somehow equating standing in the community with what one drives....Shallow materialistic Americans, to be sure.

Consider this: Most Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Volvos, Range Rovers and more costing more then $60,000 are LESS dependable then our Yaris, so Why. Do. People. Buy. These. Unreliable Cars.??? Answer: Shallow materialistic insecure idiots seeking status, and the approval of their peers.

If I were to waste $$ on a fine Luxury car, it sure would be none of the cars listed above....I'd get a Lexus because it is the most dependable line of cars in the world, at any cost!

Pavel, it surprises me to say this, but I heartily agreewith you

I don't think ANYONE here is above a mental age of 20-ish when driving a Yaris (well, I speak for myself, anyway...)

I'm 24 and recently got my university car total by some stupid driver, I haven't even heard of the Yaris until I got it as a rental. It was love at first sight. Roomy interior, low monthly payments and great gas milage are my main factor in choosing this car. Also a the package with the AC and 1000 rebate from the government is not too bad either

End up getting a Silver sedan with the 'C' Package (Canada specs)

What's that with the rebate in Canada?

I have 7 airbags, and the Linea Sol here has a special sound system.
Today i have driven the gas powered Yaris because my new Yaris was damaged by a bird at the highway. So i have lent the car from my boyfriends brother.
It's nice from him to do that, but oh my diesel powered Yaris drives so much better!!! I miss the torque :D

i'm 24 and i decided to get a Yari over the Corolla and Honda Fit. I love my new Yari HB!

ArtS · 08-21-2007, 07:00 PM

I think the Yaris was planned to target younger age groups. What Toyota is finding though is that many seniors are pleased by the great value the car represents and are buying it. I drove my son's Scion Xb and really liked the engine/transmission. When the same ones were used in the Yaris it helped make the decision easy for me. I've had the Yaris a couple of weeks now and it has met all my expectations.
