Thats what I was looking at. Cool, mystery solved.

Thanks IY. With gas prices gaining on those of Europe, there's probably a place for the Aygo here in N.A. Especially if the little 1.4 diesel can get 75mpg (US).

Hopefully we'll get the Corolla liftback here in NA (even if it's marketed as a Matrix).

Let us know how the TS stacks up against your old Aygo, I hope the increase in fuel consumption isn't going hurt too much.

Gas wise? there is a bit of a difference! But I am lucky since i live right on the border with switzerland, so I get a discount for the gas, but I could always go fill it up in Switzerland, which is almost 40 % cheaper! The Aygo does with a full tank about 600 km! and it has a 35 Liter tank! so thats about 16 km to the liter! the Yaris TS with double the size of engine and HP, it does about 600 km also to the tank, being a 42 Liter tank, so thats about a 7.2km per liter. BUT IS ALL WORTH IT!!!!!

So, that's like 5.8 L/100km vs 7L/100km (Aygo vs TS). The bigger engine in the TS is getting some awesome fuel rating, considering that I'm only getting about 6.5L/100km with my 1.5L Yaris.

Thinking of your Italian TS, brings back fond memory of the Amalfi Cost. If you haven't done that drive, I'd put it on the to-do list (especially behind the wheels of a TS). When I was there several years ago, we did the drive from Napali to Sorento in a tour bus, but I was pining for my slammed Civic Hatch or equavalent. It would have made for a great drive.

OHH, thats cool! I wil keep it in mind! The dealer took me with a TS to the Monza Track! OMG that was just awesome! The car was completely stock and it drove a dream! I want to take it to Germany for a few days to go to the Nurburing Track! Hopefully this year! But I will keep this in mind! thanks.
