Just here for a couple of days holiday...

Lots of nice cars here, a good amount of small ones (mazda 2, hyundai getz, suzuki swift, nissan micra, etc), but I have yet to see a Yaris

Apart from a first generation Yaris, still no sign of the friendly face of our favorite car here... Aren't there a couple of member here from Singapore?

Most common small car here would be the Hyundai Getz, there's quite a few of them...

Saw some niiice cars too.. 5 997 porshe 911's, a Maserati Quattroporte, Bentley Continental... We don't see this kind of car so often in bangkok

Mazda 2 looks like a first gen Yaris.

I think I figured out why there aren't a whole lot of Yarii here... They're just too damn expensive! We're talking about US$30k for the car! Hyundai Getz are a little cheaper, but still, on the whole, cars are a ripoff!

Yet there are so many fancy ones out on the roads, what the heck kind of job do these people have, to be able to afford them? It's flabbergasting! I'm depressed now...
