Reverse
my boss test drove my Yaris the other day and really liked it. however, he was concerned with the noise it makes when reversing. not sure how to describe it, but it kind of sounds like a whine of some sort. my GTI had the same sound, and i hear BMW, VW's, and FC3S's having the same sound when they reverse. should this be of concern?

If you like driving so you can observe where you have been - rather where you are going - this could be a problem.
