Lordy that is one big honkin' front wiper.

Thanks for posting as requested. Nice to finally see non-promotional shots of the 2012.

Looks nice, but I still shed tears for the loss of 2006-11 quirkiness.

The front wiper I was not so sure on but it's a amazing bit of kit, really clears the screen, It's more of a grown up car compared to the previous yaris'

Me too, I hate that mini-wiper as it always marks the windshield at the end of its stroke, right in line with my line-of-sight. I would have preferred the Civic-type wipers where both go from the middle outward or a single wiper like the Gen 3.

Cheers! M2
