Consumer Reports not too pleased with Yaris - Toyota Yaris Forums

Havana · 01-22-2009, 02:48 PM

When shopping, I compared the 09 Fit to the 09 Yaris. I know Honda and Toyota both make outstanding cars. The Fit was awesome and very fun to drive. It came with more standard features. It was also about $3000 more. Fits are in short supply in my area and manual tranny Fits are virtual blue diamonds. The Honda dealers were not very flexible at all on price. The Yaris is a more simple car but of equal quaility in my opinion. Six airbags and ABS are standard on 09's. There was also a $500 rebate at that time and the Toyota dealers seemed more interested in making a sale. In the end, I got a great car for several thousand less than a Fit. I'm happy with that.
