I would probably go with the LB Yaris but I would certainly consider the Fiesta and 2012 Accent.Matter of fact my parents just got a Fiesta sedan yesterday.I drove it home.My dad was with me so I took it pretty easy.He's 87 with lots of health issues and gets dizzy easy so I really had to.Anyway the ride home is mostly along a nice twisty road doing between 45-55 mph.I have to admit it handled really well and was a lot of fun to drive.Not quite as nimble as a Yaris but it is a little bigger to.About a 30 mile drive and the fuel gauge needle didn't drop any that I could see.

If I was to buy a new Toyota I'd skip the small market segment and go up to a ext cab tacoma 4x4 v6 with a 6speed and a small lift to accomodate 35"s. But I (as previously stated in this thread) "am in it for the long haul with the Yaris, looking for 300+"

Hyundai / Kia are leaving the competition in the dust at this time.
Scion perhaps??? At least they're appealling. Toyota is wallowing in the mud. Too conservative for me!!!

I'm actually considering trading in my 3-door liftback for a sub-compact/small sedan. My new job may require me to make long distance cross-country business trips, so I want an adequate size and secured trunk to protect my stuff. I'd probably go with the new 2012 Versa due to my budget and low $10,990 sticker price. The Corolla is too big for my taste.
