I get about 1,000 KMs monthly, fill the tank every two weeks for about 40 dollars on my yaris.

How would that translate to a Tacoma?

You can tell yourself that you are saving alot of money on fuel. Think about how much $$$ you are saving in a year? compared to 20 mpg Tacoma?
What do you mean? Metal?

And fkn, I don't have a credit card and the bank here denies any jointments of my account or card since I'm under 18, (Turned 17 on October 20th)

The way I COULD get out of this is if my dad takes the yaris pays for it etc and I just trade in his old echo which would get like 4 grand or so, and use it as a downpayment. But I don't wanna ruin his love for the car.

So far looks like I am tanking it through with the yaris

Save your money, give money to parent, have parent buy part with their credit card. If they say no, wait 1 year.

I wasn't crazy about this car either when I got it. I had wanted a tC, but my dad waited too long to let me buy a car, and they increased from like 15k to 19k due to popularity. Not to mention I ended up paying for this car entirely myself anyways

I've had my sedan for three years now, and didn't start to really love it until about a year ago after finding this website. The way I see it - anyone can go piss away money on a nice car. In my opinion though, having a unique car is much cooler than the generic sports/luxury car. My car has cost about 18k with aftermarket stuff included, and it's incredibly unique. I've yet to even see another modded yaris around here. Not to mention, it's now stupidly fast, and gets good fuel economy to boot

You're young man... Stick with the cheap car, it makes sense. Save up your money and buy a nicer car when you're a little older. That's my plan atleast.

Kevin, sooner or later winter will catch with a Camaro or Tacoma or anything else that is your daily driver, taking care of the smaller Yaris is much easier also.

I was referring to the place between front window and back window.
If you take a look at the U.S. sedan(Nnot mine, but looks the same) :
That part is made of black plastic, on the other hand yours is silver metal.
