can you swap suspension? brakes? transmission? list goes on....

its not really a comparison...
actually, the xb/xa/echo is in no way "swappable" with the yaris.. suspension is different, brakes are different, hubs are different, interior (seats) are different, engine management is different (DBW instead of cable throttle)

so, they share most of the same engine.. that's about it. the transmissions don't even swap back and forth without modification. this idea that they're the same platform is wrong.
