well i came home earlier today from my trip to corpus christi, texas, drove from san antonio, highway wise it did it's part(even got to drive up to 100mph when i passed big rigs), handled pretty good and i love the fact i required no gas stops even after i got lost trying to figure out where a friend lives. it was only after the 2nd day i refueled using 89 oct. costed me about 20 dollars. we also visited the lady lex and the texas state aqua. and drove back to S.A. i still have a little more than a half tank.(also if it matters ac was on through out the whole time driving) my only peeve of our yaris is that seagull poop and the pacific blue color of our car does not match...<grumbles about seagulls need to get potty trained>

Wow! That's what I call a HUGE difference of vehicule! The SRT-4 is a real BEAST, no matter how gas it take, it's one of the most pleasant car to drive. My friend own a SRT-4 with STAGE-III (355 wHP) and that's unbelivable how it's powerfull.
I think you'll not enjoy Yaris at all, it's one of the less powerfull car on the actual market. Trust-me, I own a 2k2 Echo (same engine as Yaris) and it's a real paint in the ass, I can't affort changing my 2k3 Cavalier (2.2 Ecotec) for a Yaris never. My Cavalier act as a real RACE CAR if compared to the Echo/Yaris! BTW, my girlfriend appreciate the Echo and maybe we will trade the Echo for a Yaris.

its all in your goals: if you wanna have a fast car, then look elsewhere. if you want a fuel effiecent, cheap car, then you cant beat the yaris (except off the line).

Performance is my only complain about the Yaris/Echo, they are real nice car, very reliable, pretty cheap (not the cheapest car in the category), they are well constructed. But they give very very poor performance while many other car give better performance for a very small fuel milleage difference. I mean, the Yaris is probably getting the best fuel economy in the category, that's true, but many other car will be a lot more performant and only take 0.7L to 1.0L/100 KM more, that's is an almost invisible difference in your budget.
