Around here I see MANY more sedans than liftbacks. I almost opted for one instead of my LB...

I dont feel fully satisfied with just my LB. I would love to have a sedan to make me feel whole. Im completely serious. I guess you feel the same way. You feel like you want LB. You should love your sedan, they are so nice when I see them riding down the road, very differnt yet very similar to the LB.

trust me, having a yaris, period, is amazing.

I sat in a sedan and a LB and I liked sedan better. It just felt more upscale. The handrest, the tachometer, the rear seats are actually useable, vs on the LB it's a joke, IMO. Also the trunk is a good thing. If you carry any smelly items like oil or gas, in a LB it's a hazard and it's gonna smell all over the cabin.

Further more, the 5 door HB doesn't allow the seats to fold completely flat. At least the one I saw at Los Angeles Autoshow last week. And it WAS 60/40 folding seats.

So if I decide to go with the Yaris instead of waiting for the IQ, I will get a white sedan with manual tranny :D.

I've seen a couple of good looking sedans, but most of the sedans I see just blend in with that sea of sedans (Corollas, Civics, etc.) driving around here.

Oh and the 60/40 seats do fold down flat. Mine looks like this (someone else's pic., but my back seats fold down just like that):

That is what I was talking about the big difference for me between LB and Sedan is the versatility to carrie a big box, tv, etc. NICE!

Do you have to move the front seats foward to acomplish flat down?

Yeah you have to move the front seats forward, but once the back seats are fully down you can slide the front seats back again.

lol sedan>LB imo. Because you can carry five people, and their luggage haha. And it looks special compared to regular sedans too. But then again, I chose LB because it was different. And I wanted the smallest car possible, I live in LA after all.

I could stare at my sedan all day. Sure, it's a "base model" with horrid hubcaps (wrong bolt pattern?!) on it's steel wheels. But, I think it's a work of art. It's definitely fun to drive too! If I had the liftback, I think it would take me a bit longer to warm up to it's looks. The 4 dr. liftback is alright looking but I think the 3 dr. is downright insect like (just my opinion). The sedan has the added convenience of a covered & large cargo space. This would come in handy if I ever decide to join a band and had to haul around expensive stuff like amps & guitars. If I had the liftback all this stuff would be kind of exposed and I'd have less room to utilize.

I love my sedan and can't wait to continue modding it, I have great respect for the HB, but it wasnt for me.
