Why didn't you invest 1000$ more to buy a Corolla instead

It's called Buyer's Remorse.

Let's just say that there are cues specific to some fit owners. Sorta like PK's uncanny ability to spot caveatipse within a 3 post margin...

all u had to do was go back a few posts in this very thread and you would have seen that i do not drive a fit

i had a corolla once and it sucked ass, swore never to own one again, if toyota hadn't added the Yaris under the corolla in their lineup i probably woulnd't have bought the brand ever again

more information please

and you're aware, the Yaris is just toyota's replacement for the ECHO right?

The corolla travelling at 28 mph (2mph under the posted limit, and a solid 10mph under what other cars had been traversing this road at) going around a not too sharp bend that had been a tad bit over sanded (no snow, no ice, just salt and sand) completely gave up on the turn and went sideways off the road and into boulder and a tree. Thats a car sucking in my opinion. No it wasn't my first car, no it wasn't my first slide, yes i did turn into the slide, and yes i did turn out of the slide, and no i wasn't on the brake. Horrbly unsafe suspension, cute little wheels had no grip.

sounds like someone needs driving school..

or to have bought a good set of tires, had them properly inflated, and a good alignment done..

what is "safer" about your trailing arm semi-solid rear axle and mac strut front suspension than a corolla?

what year of corolla?

Dude, that has very little if anything to do with the Corolla. In fact, the Yaris wouldn't have done any better. Narrow econo tires - it happens.

[Russelt3hPirate]

sounds like your tires failed.

[Rich k]

Hey Toyota chose to put those on that car, seeing as they were part of the original equipment supplied by the mfr, they were properly inflated, well maintained, and the car was only 3 mos old i reserve the right to say its the car as a whole that failed and therefore sucked.

omg hahahaah

ok so you were driving a corolla that had independant rear suspension, factory rear swaybar swaybar, independant mac strut suspension

your yaris has a semi solid rear axle.

your yaris has 185/60/15 tire most likely bfgoodrich?
the corolla had 185/60/14 tires iirc bfgoodrich

your corolla weighed about 250lbs more than a yaris


you really just don't know how to drive, accept the fact.

[Tamago]

Florida is like France, you just don't drink the water, you drink booze instead. They put so much crap in this water, chlorine, flouride, etc,etc,etc. It is absurd.
