New York Times Reviews Yaris...

[fnkngrv]

Wow...they really love to bash on the Yaris that is for sure. Perhaps they need to get with the program themselves...let them see Garm's LB, my sedan, etc and then say that it doesn't have potential. NY Times have once again proven that they are among the most pompous elite out there. There are just too many things in this article to make comments on to even bother. Personally I find that I prefer the 07-11 models over the 12. It has lost its originality.


Here is the BIGGEST glaring issue of the article imho...with how they have built the first page of the article it doesn't lend to pushing folks to get to page 2.

I agree with almost everything in your post (I do like the '12 and '13 SE 5-door better than the 2nd Gen 5-door (except for the dash) ). Even through the compliments, the author can (IMO) barely hide his disdain for cars that (if you caught him in an unguarded moment) he'd probably say are 'designed for the bridge and tunnel crowd'.
