The 3rd gen Yaris WILL see America. That's a 100% guarantee.

Toyota has sold more sub-compact cars in the US than any other company.

Does anyone think, in an age where sub-compacts are more popular than ever, that Toyota would leave the market with one of their most popular world wide cars? No way in hell.

Also, I can't love that Fiesta. I seem to see only the slime green ones on the road. The Elantra looks like a mini me Sonata. I'm thinking the Sonata "look" is getting played out since there's way too many on the road already. I DO like the turbo version though. Saw TWO thus far on the roads. They can make them pretty as they want, but it's still a Korean car, a Hyundai!

South Korea makes some of the best things now. Get with the program, it's 2011.

People used to say the very same thing about Japanese cars. When was the last time they were crap?

The new Elantra will undoubtedly prove to be among the most reliable cars.

I also don't see any resemblance with the Sonata other than similar design language (which every company does for consistency). They look very different to me.
