I dunno, but with the TRD springs I'll bet this little car would carve up the local back roads.

Oh definately! I have the TRD Springs shocks and struts on my liftback. This car handles great...I took it all the way up quimby in the evergreen area.

Got my Yaris Liftback on September 9! It's the first car I've ever bought new. I couldn't be more thrilled!
So far, I've only spotted 4 others like it in my area. It took a while to find the color ("meterorite metallic") and the transmission (had to be Manual!) I was looking for--but well worth the wait! When I finally found my match it came "tricked out" with the 18" wheels and rims, Spoiler, etc. It's so much fun to drive, and so adorable. Now my best friend wants to get one.

Looks like Yaris averages 35 mpg auto/38 mpg std in real world. Try "gas mileage 2007 Toyota Yaris" search for EPA site.

My milage has been from 35mpg (the week I let my wife drive the car) up to 41 on the highway going to and from Tahoe.

Unrelatedly, the car handles Tahoe really well with Blizzaks.
