2018 Yaris - here they come

^^^ Minus the ground effects add-ons, the ugly spoiler, and the juvenile directional wheels, it's a very nice little car... and with dealer discounts and rebates, it will probably be cheaper than a fully equipped Yaris.

Wish it were available in basic trim in the US.

Yeah, the ground effects kit (and big (though optional) rear spoiler) is a bit over the top and clearly aimed at teenagers and younger drivers. Now that the iM isn't a 'one option only' Scion anymore, Toyota should break it up into an LE (No skirt kit, perhaps more conservative/traditional variant front-end) and SE (the way it is now).

Also, not sure what is up with those newer 'upside down' looking headlights. They look sort of weird to me.

I'm not a huge fan of that directional wheel design either. I would prefer something like along the lines of the old Matrix XRS wheels. Those were SEXY.
