I would imagine that the stable gas prices and the fact that Jeep Patriots can be had for the price of a new Corolla would stimulate sales.
http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2...p-fuel-economy Just another casual thought... I have one friend who I've known since high school, and all of my cars are "too small" for him because he's much, much wider than I am. Hard to imagine him squeezing himself into a Yaris. Ever try to lose 100 or more pounds in one's mid-40's? It's easier to go out and buy a Jeep. |

The dash has finally grown on me enough that I could tolerate it (HATED it at first). I also don't like the seats in all but the SE. One can put different seats in a car, but not really a different dash. I'll hang on to my 2nd Gen for many more miles.

I'm not looking for a luxury car, but I'd like a decent interior.

A loan broker told me that new cars aren't bringing in the profits they use to. They prefer to sell used cars.

My friend told me they dropped the sedan model in Canada,as many people dont like hatch backs.. sales down? maybe bring back the sedan and sales will rise.

Actually, there may be something to it. I'd bet there was a lot of fleet sales with Yaris sedans, too. So now consumers only have a three- or five-door hatch option.

I'm surprised at how much used Yarii are selling for. Looked into some used car options for my dad recently and was a bit taken at how much '07's are selling for. Some listed for as much or just 1k below original sale price. Anyone else notice that?

Right now, all we can find (in the private market) are Salvage title, or super high mileage. Thus dealers get top do;;ar for the low moleage units they possess. Thats why I just bought another new one!!

I'll probably be looking to upgrade my Yaris if not this summer definitely next summer,If my only option is the hatchback version then Yaris will be off the short list for the next car.Perhaps Corolla,Camry or a Hyundai product will replace what could have been a sure fire sale.

I wonder how the Corolla fairs on highway mileage. My step daughter just bought a 2011 Corolla and it was very nice.
I am thinking it might be a good alternative.

My wife's 2005 Corolla woulnd't get over 35 mpg in free fall. It felt like a gas guzzler compared to my Echo (43-44 mpg) or my Yaris sedan (40-41 mpg)
