WTF!!! What kind of cars have you owned that make you think the Yaris handles well? It is the worst handling car I have ever owned. It feels like I am going to scrape the door handles on the ground when I take a corner at speed.

I feel the little car is fairly nimble around the twisties, certainly better then you make it out to be.. but then, I've been driving a loooong time and rely less on the car and more on my own skills.. anyone can make a race car go, talent is in making a car do more than expected.

The Yaris is no sports car, but neither is it worthy of such disdain. If you wanted a rally car you should have bought one.
