Yaris vs. Aveo: The Real Competitor

[brickhardmeat]

I kinda like the simple body lines of the Aveo but it is just a Daewoo like previously posted and they do get crappy gas mileage from what I could find whle I was in the market. I bought a Yaris because it was exactly what I wanted and I didn't have to buy it with all the power stuff that -always- has problems. This was my ideal car since Volkswagen is -never- going to release the Polo here.

I dont know about in the states, but here VW sells it's previous generation Jetta and Golf as the City Golf and City Jetta: low cost alternatives with 4 cyl only and most dont have power options, and I think the base price is something like 13,000 CAD. They dont get near the fuel economy of the Yaris though and newer VW's are severely dealer dependant for maintenance, not to mention the heavy cost of parts...
