Why didn't you invest 1000$ more to buy a Corolla instead - Page 8 - Toyota Yaris Forums

So you refer to your scion as a "honda fit"? ok, because that makes a lot of sense... Sorry, but I can only go by what you state. bobby refers to his "fit" as a "phit" Should I assume he's talking about a completely different vehicle when he does this?

It says you drive a scion in your avatar pic, but does that automatically mean you only own that particular vehicle?

I apologize for not wasting the limited bandwidth on this crappy computer I have at work to double check every single poster's profile/garage. You're absolutely right, I have failed. EPICALLY. A thousand pardons for you, sir. Please excuse me while I go /wrists due to my failure...

you reserve the right to say the moon is made of blue cheese, but that doesn't make it so..

Let's just say that there are cues specific to some fit owners. Sorta like PK's uncanny ability to spot caveatipse within a 3 post margin...

all u had to do was go back a few posts in this very thread and you would have seen that i do not drive a fit

Thats a car sucking in my opinion. No it wasn't my first car, no it wasn't my first slide, yes i did turn into the slide, and yes i did turn out of the slide, and no i wasn't on the brake. Horrbly unsafe suspension, cute little wheels had no grip.

Dude, that has very little if anything to do with the Corolla. In fact, the Yaris wouldn't have done any better. Narrow econo tires - it happens.

the 12" stock tires on the FORD Festivas ( Mazda 121 ) we had did quite well in snow and on ice . Was quite shocked at the way the 3 speed auto performed during the 1st ice storm

. Slapped 4 12" studded YOKOHAMAs on a '93 4 speed manual FORD Festiva with great results until it was rearended ( totaled ) while waiting for red light to change during a wet snowfall . Never fails

yup , it's another feeding frenzy

. Shameful , aint it ?

ain't what it used to be

The corolla pricing in Canada is a bit of an anomoly. The new-gen corolla/matrix were released when the Canadian dollar was trading at parity with the US dollar. So the pricing was set at a fair bit lower than the previous generation. The Yaris was originally priced to be in line with the previous generation Corolla/Matrix. This has resulted in a much smaller price premium to get into the compact category of Toyota vehicles in Canada. Given that the Canadian dollar is much closer to its tradition levels (relative to the US). I expect that the next model refresh on the Corolla/Matrix platform will bump up the price significantly.
