I prefere the new interior over the old one (although it's sad for the glove boxes), but I liked the old exterior better, not than much however. The new one looks a bit lower and less "minivan". Otherwise, the new yaris has so much better seats and driving position than before, and that's the major reason why I would get a 2012 over a 2011 model, and over the competition. The only cars with such a good driving position and generous leg room are the expensive mini and the Chevry Sonic. And the Sonic has a cheesy interior and still feels cheap despite the improvement. And it's probably the least roomy car of the segment. Exterior is fresh and modern though.
As for the fiesta, I don't like the look, both inside and outside, and it's more expensive in hatchback trim. The fit looks like a minivan (I can live with it since it's so roomy), but the noise level and comfort are the worst in the segment. The new Accent will soon be obsolete design wise, will break quicker than an yaris, resell for less, and the interior still feel cheap, not roomy, and visibility isn't great.
