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

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.
