I test drove the sedan and own a liftback. I can tell you the LB is much better, but then again it doesnt have a seat height adjuster, so they would probalby end up being about the same once you found a comfortable position in the sedan.
I am coming from an old 93 truck with great front windshield visibility, i loved it and miss it terribly. I am only 5,9 and coming from my my that truck the yaris front windhshield visibilty pisses me off. I imagine if you are anything like me, then with your additional height it will be unbearable within just a few weeks. I chose it in hopes of good gas mileage, but I didnt look into the scions (dealers around here kept trying to steer me away from them and i was ignorant). Consequently i havent test driven one, but i would say go give the Xb a try. Also, the ford focus 5 door is on sale until january it has a seat height adjuster and would probably have better front visibilty than either yaris.
End result, the LB is not bad at all, about the same as others, but if you really love that open feeling when looking out the front windshield then you will want to seriously consider some other vehicles. Though the side windows are pretty damn massive and was what allowed me to sacrifice the overhead front windshield visibility.
