Oh, those LITTLE things...

That bug me about the Yaris...

Three cupholders available to the driver, but none where I want them (to the front and right)... The interior light that comes on to illuminate the interior as I'm gathering up my purse, swigging the last of my drink, or blowing my nose before leaving my car; am sure the neighbors enjoy the "light show"...

And now this: placed my credit card on the passenger seat at a drive-through; down the seat it slid, disappearing in between the seat and back, but not coming out the other side because it's sealed in with fabric, necessitating my digging around in there for it; this NEVER happened before.

Then there's the fact that Yaris is both tall AND light, making it something of a windsail on gusty days, and can't drive with windows down; it "vibrates"...

Just little "design flaws" I didn't experience with the Suzuki Swift and am suprised to find in the Yaris. As for the hatchback, I find it so inconvenient to use that I've taken to just throwing my groceries in the back seat... I might as well have bought a sedan... And, even with the most fastitidious driving habits, I still average just 36 mpg highway... Two fewer than Swift.

I know this is supposed to be the Yaris fan club, but anyone else find the overall design of this car disappointing and "unremarkable"???
