Is the turning radius of the yaris SE really that bad?
Because I love the turning radius of the regular yaris and I hate the fit's turning radius for comparison, if the yaris SE has the same (or worst) than the fit, then the car is pointless.

The turning radius is not "bad"....only because its a small car. The SE turning radius is definitely not as good as other Yaris trims but I still find it easy to pull a quick u-turn. On a side note, I test drove the 2011 Honda Fit but found the cabin noise too loud.

The Fit 2012 has more sound proofing than before I think, but it's still noisy probably, and the engine revs too high with the manual tranny.

But my mom got a great deal back in early 2010, she bought her 2009 fit dx-a (base mt, with AC) brand new for 17 400$ all included. At the time, for a yaris with similar equipement (abs brakes and 6 airbags were optionnal on the yaris) was aroun 18 000$ and still more boring and less roomy. But the fit really is too loud and uncomfy for the road, I wouldn't recommend my mother to buy a fit again now.
