the sad truth is imo that Yarises will never be plentiful

.......as long as they come from Japan.........dollar/yen exchange rate just not advantegous to importing them at this point with entry level pricing

That's something I actually view as a plus.
Who wants to have the same car as the neighbor?

Exactly, that's what the Neon and Cobalt were for...

True on that point, but the Yaris coming from Japan is a real beneficial to the owner of the car. Some of the Toyota's when they started to assemble here and manufacture some parts tended to have some problems. The previous models or successors to these Toyota vehicles did not. The new Tundra has had a few recalls and its predecessor the T100 () did not have much or at all.... And the new Tacoma has had a recall or two, compared to the indestructible 96 Tacoma and the Toyota pickups 79-95...

EDIT: Since August 2008, I'm seeing a lot of Yaris on the roads now....kind of makes me sad now that its becoming common :(
I bought it to stand out, but whatev~

iv said this before, but my 98 taco, was part of the "extended" warranty on frame rot, it may had encompassed 96 i dont remember if the body changed durring that year or not. DOnt get me wrong i still love tacos, just not the newest ones, i love the generation after my 98. early 2000s before they changed the entire look..
