Once your seat of the pant dyno forgets the V6 you'll become like us and think the Yaris is actually peppy. You may want to consider a 5 speed.
At test drive time I jumped from my 205 hp turbo Talon into an automatic Yaris and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was just sooooooooooooo luggish. Next I tryed a 5 speed and found it had hope, and if I couldn't adjust I'd give it to wifey and start shopping again in the up-power market. Today, with a few tweaks I enjoy my Yaris. And I'm not one to fret over fuel mileage. Fun factor is priority one and this light-weight machine handles nicely once the grandma suspension was replaced.
