Why didn't you invest 1000$ more to buy a Corolla instead

Just because it's a company's entry model vehicle doesn't automatically make it worse than any other vehicle in the company's lineup. You can buy an ipod shuffle over the ipod touch, and it doesn't necessarily make the shuffle work any worse than the touch. Companies don't create crappy cars on their bottom end just to convince you to spend more and buy their higher-end models. You buy whatever fits your needs/wants.

Again, most yaris owners here on this site have done the research on their vehicles. We're coming from real world experiences with the Yaris, and to some of us, it's the top of the heap when it comes to subcompacts. Just because some people love the car and you don't doesn't necessarily mean they're blindly defending it.

saying something is low on the totem pole does not make it a bad thing lol, you're overly sensitive.

at least it's on the pole!

I was never upset about it, but it sounds like you're generalizing that yaris owners who announce their love of their vehicles are doing so blindly because there are better vehicles in Toyota's lineup... Or at least that's what I took from it. Was I wrong? I have an open mind, please clarify.

no one is undermining the yaris. it has its place. i would pick a yaris over a corolla..

this is not a car argument, this is an attitude argument. the car is great.. blindly defending it is not so great.. all cars have faults, defects, oversights..

my car came without a mirror on the passenger side sun visor.. that's an oversight.. but if someone were to get in my car, flip down the visor and say "oh my god, you dont' have a mirror" should i say "stop undermining my car!" ? no.. because that's childish.

My Fox came with no passenger side wing mirror. That's a nod to building a car as cheaply as possible. My Yaris has one, so as far as I'm concerned I traded UP to the Yaris.

So you refer to your scion as a "honda fit"? ok, because that makes a lot of sense... Sorry, but I can only go by what you state. bobby refers to his "fit" as a "phit" Should I assume he's talking about a completely different vehicle when he does this?

It says you drive a scion in your avatar pic, but does that automatically mean you only own that particular vehicle?

I apologize for not wasting the limited bandwidth on this crappy computer I have at work to double check every single poster's profile/garage. You're absolutely right, I have failed. EPICALLY. A thousand pardons for you, sir. Please excuse me while I go /wrists due to my failure...

My wrist -> <- Me
