Wait what? The yaris is an econobox. How does that hurt?

If you want an A to B car, the Yaris might be it.

If you want a car with "soul", look anywhere else.
Wow, someone has some issues.

i think it drives pretty darn good.

I am glad it lacks all those ridiculous electro nannies that just add unnecessary weight. An active brain is the only nanny anyone needs while driving.

All car prices are way too high. They always will be. We aren't going to return to the times of $2500 cars. get over it.

I love the fisher price interior. Things are easy to take out, play with, put back together, modify, and generally have fun with. Try doing that in a luxury car.

If you want to have fun and get great gas mileage, buy a yaris.

If you are a stuck up snob who thinks image is important, look somewhere else, preferably down the business end of a gun as you pull the trigger.

Well I guess that means only 2 since it's hard to criticize a side airbag. They're pretty damn useful. But still. ABS and traction control are computers attemping to make up for american's inability to sufficiently operate the cars they own. I don't blame Americans though because even a mentally handicapped person who can't speak english can pass the driver's test sadly.

There's a reason the best roads, the best drivers, and the best cars are found in Europe. /endtangent

edit: Also i'm with jumpman on this one. seems like firemachine woke up one day to a yaris in his driveway and hates his life for it...
I don't want any airbags, still haven't seen enough proof they do anything at all, and yet we know people have been killed by them.

Completely agree with everything else you said.
