Looks like I'm on the other end of the bell curve at 49. I've owned an Echo, but the Yaris is much nicer in terms of quality and I sure enjoy it on my daily commute. My wife drives Toyota's uber wagon, Sequoia. I get 41 mpg, she gets 14!

56..and my daughter bought cheata fur seat covers for my Black Betty,and I'm very proud of them....never have followed the crowd. BB is only the 5th new car I've boughten. Tried to make a list once of all the cars I've owned and quit after half an hour...just not worth the effort. Japan took over the automotive world in the 60's and 70's as far as I'm concerned!!!

21~ This is going to be my first big purchase. The previous car was from my parents and I wanted to go with something stylish and dependable. I'll wait on my motorcycle for a couple of years, luxury comes second, performance comes first. hehe.

38 myself....told my wife this was going to be my mid life crisis car...she said thanked god, at least we can afford it...lol

I got it for commuting as well. Had a 2000 jeep wrangler that I had for over 7 years. It was time for something new again and with a warranty. The jeep was starting to have problems.

I'm 25 and traded in my '80 El Camino for a '07 MeteoRICE liftback
Gas mileage and low overall cost of ownership were what attracted me to it. I chose it over the Honda Fit based on price, pretty much. I like the way the Yaris looks compared to the Fit, also. I was more impressed with the Fit but it costs more and mileage isn't as good.

This is my 3rd car and I am 21. I had a 03 matrix, 05 camry, and now a 07 Blazing Blue Yaris. And it is by far my favorite.

I'll be 31 soon. I bought the Yaris this past Saturday to replace a 99 Jeep TJ that needed a lot of work. I didn't want to put any more money into the Jeep, was getting sick of buying gas for it, and wanted something brand new and reliable.

I'm still a bit sad everytime I pass a Jeep, but when it comes down to it I think I'll be much happier with the Yaris.

Some people complain that the Yaris is a bit noisy at highway speeds and that it doesn't accelerate fast enough, but it's a huge improvement over the Jeep. I had forgotten what it was like to be able to actually hear the stereo
