Hate it! If I were in the market for a small car again, I'd pass on the 2012 model.

That's what bums me out, I'd really like to be looking forward to getting a new Yaris in the future (does that make any sense)
Oh well, I really like my car.

It'd be a hard sell to go for a 2012 Yaris right now with its competition. The new Accent, Fiesta, and Sonic, plus the Fit all beat the new Yaris at this point IMO.

When I got my 2008 hatchback it was a no brainer, the subcompact market was awful. The Yaris was easily at the top and we already wanted a Toyota.

The competition? Accent: awful until the 2012 redesign. Aveo: awful enough that they replaced with with the Sonic. Fiesta: Wasn't around. Fit: Ugly little thing until the 2009 redesign, plus a premium price.

All good points.My folks went with the 2011 Fiesta S sedan just last month.I have to admit it's a really nice car at a very good price.
