Wife is sick of her Corolla.

[CTScott]

Here in the US, many people find the Corolla to be a better value than the Yaris, but I think value is a very relative thing.

I purchased my first (and third) Yaris because of the phenomenal fuel economy. I could have gotten more car and perhaps a few more bells and whistles going with something else (like the Corolla), but for me it was 94% about the fuel consumption. The other 6% for me was that I am not a fan of sedans, as they all kind of look the same. The unique look of the Yaris was definitely a draw.

The new one is not quite as unique, as it looks like so many other hatchbacks now, but if I were in the market for a brand new one, I would likely still go that route, particularly knowing how bullet proof the 1NZ has been.

This is certainly how I feel about my engine......and the main reason I view the criticism of this engine with . Obviously some people have different priorities than I do re the engine in their vehicle.
