You have been watching too much project Binky dude.
I have heard rumours that there is a Yaris derivative model in Japan (possibly the Belta?) which is basically an AWD Yaris. I think there is this niche in the Japanese market for "snow cars" which are used up in the high altitude areas in the winter. You could look into if you could import one. Mighty Car Mods had a project where they did an AWD conversion on a Daihatsu Mira by using a wrecked Japanese AWD Mira and using the parts from a half cut and putting it into an Australian road legal Mira. In that case they actually swapped the floor pan between cars by removing all the spot welds and welding the AWD floor pan in and swapping over the rear diff, engine, gearbox, drive shaft and the wiring looms and ECU's. It was a huge job.
