This car was introduced with tons of coverage/threads way back in August of last year.

I don't know about everyone else but, first time I've seen photos of it without black mats taped all over it.

Just figured that since the 3rd generation forum has somewhere over 32,000 views, most people would be aware of it.

It's been posted 100's of times, the first of which was Oct. 2 of last year, 6 months ago!

Ah, see....now it all makes sense. Check out my post history. End of September is when I go into my busy season.

So if something monumental in the world of Yari happens next fall/winter, I'll expect a pm from you so I don't miss out. Ok?

I don´t like the new "angular" design of Toyota. It does not like the the Auris. The Auris has a very round design like the Yaris, too.

Engines for Europe:
1.33 litre ~100hp Dual-VVTi
1.5 litre ~120 hp Dual-VVTi
1.4 D4-D Diesel engine ~90 hp
1.5 litre hybrid engine

hp values are estimated by me

Engines for the US:
1.5 litre, the old one

Exactly. I remember how much I liked my Subaru FF1 because of all of it's quirky idiosyncrasies. When the Subaru went mainstream, I lost interest.
