LB vs Sedan - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

PaidTimeOff · 11-13-2008, 08:35 PM

In all honesty tho, the Sedan's pretty sweet. I know I would have gotten that over the lb if I had kids or lots of carpooling to do.

rningonfumes · 11-13-2008, 08:36 PM

Whoa...IN anguish, I wasn't paying attention...one in front of the passenger, another behind the steering in the hatch...

...what third one?

I want the one behind the steering column~! Frinkin waste of space not to have anything there.... and I want that third one, where ever it is!

PaidTimeOff · 11-13-2008, 08:40 PM

third one's right above the "regular" one in front of the passenger seat

Carrot Top · 11-13-2008, 08:44 PM

Glovebox # 1...behind steering wheel in the dashboard
Glovebox #2...in front of passenger in the dashboard
Glovebox #3....below glovebox #2 .
Glovebox#4.....under back of hatch where the spare tire is. I keep all my tools, booster cables, rope etc. there.

Four reasons that the hatchback ROCKS!!! :)

let's not turn this into a bashing thread, guys, please?

Each body style has its advantages and drawbacks, and appeal to different people differently. Let's leave it at that.

Personally I really like both, I'd like to get a sedan next if I ever get a new car

Yes, driver side glovebox is great. The 5-door LB is nice. The convenience of the Sedan in the LB form factor. Also, I have that hatch cover that swings up and down with the hatch door, keeping whatever is in the hatch covered up.

SIPNGAS · 11-13-2008, 10:54 PM

I wanted the LB..got one....

then I saw Tristan's and Mike's sedans and like them as well...

eh...I won't second guess what I have as I *love* my car...but I wouldn't tell anyone that my choice was better than theirs. It's a personal thing, ya know?

b_hickman11 · 11-13-2008, 11:09 PM

I voted...but it only lets you vote once. I have two Sedans. This thread is pretty gay...

You should have two accounts then. =]

Ryu · 11-14-2008, 12:04 AM

Voted, it really is quite interesting to know the ratio of LB and sedan owner here.

rningonfumes · 11-14-2008, 12:06 AM

Arrrgh, lol...I want my other two glove boxes!!!

*MAD DOG* · 11-14-2008, 12:17 AM

I own a liftback. I love the look of the liftback and how convenient it is to use, including folding down the seats and being able to pretty much put whatever you want in the back of it.

I'm not a fan of the sedan and think they should have called the sedan something different to Yaris. Like they have Vios/Belta/Vitz as different names. I would never consider buying the sedan as to me they look fugly.

Before I get flamed for my comments, i have seen some really nice Yaris sedans mith some great cosmetic mods, i'm really not a fan of the stock look on the Yaris sedan. But hey everyone is entitled to there own opinion.

specialeducator · 11-14-2008, 05:46 AM

I test drove both and chose the sedan because it met my overall needs better. If I was to chose simply on commuting needs I would have gone with the 3 door.

MUSKOKA800 · 11-14-2008, 06:42 AM

I enjoy my sedan. Really never even considered a LB.

Does both mean 5 door or means someone has a 3dr and 4dr?

drbilal · 11-14-2008, 08:09 AM

both means someone has a lb and a sedan, regardless of doors.
