hmmm I'm looking at the back window of mine and those pics and I can't tell any difference... If you mean the back door windows, I think the windows on the 5 door Yari are the same. The bottom one is the previous generation, isn't it?

Yep, the one with the big ass dent in the door is the old first generation Yaris that sold in Europe, Canada and everywhere else except the US from 1999–2005 (we had the Echo during that time period, as did Australia, Hong Kong and several other Asian markets. It also sold as the Echo hatchback in Canada from 2004 to 2005).

I have seen tons of second generation Yarii in Europe and, other than the engines available, physically they are no different than the ones we get here. Well, there are some differences (taillights, etc), but the bodies are the same...

Yeah, my bad. I just went to look at the newer models online

http://www.toyota.com/yaris/photo-gallery.html

and they do look the same. I haven't seen them around though, just online. Most people are still driving the same as mine, 3 dr LB, around here, it looks like.

I thought those were called Echos here in the us and they weren't sold as hatchbacks just sedans...

I don't know. I have the 2007 which is a slightly different look. I've never seen in person a Yaris with the split back window :iono.
