Males and the Yaris LB? - Page 3 - Toyota Yaris Forums

I could see where some might say the LB is "cute," however the reason I'm attracted to it is 1) it's inexpensive 2) it's reliable 3) it's good on gas and 4) it's so unique it's somewhat of a niche car, kind of like a Mini Cooper or a Miata.

I agree with most of the members here, but living in LA and having been Yaris owner for 6 months now I only saw 2 or 3 guys driving LB.

So I have to ask, what makes a guy buy something soo cute that he could possibly be ridiculed by stupid macho men?

my wife and I both liked the LB I liked it because I saw the tuning potental and thought it would look hard dropped on some wheels, and my wife just thought it looked different and that is why she wanted it

I have received a number of the "it's so cute" comments from women. I even got one from a guy one time which was a bit awkard.

LMAO. That's the only word I get that describes our car. We just hear "cute" everywhere we go. I don't believe it has ever been called otherwise. I don't mind driving a "cute" car, it's better than driving an ugly car.

Mrs.Yaris · 05-30-2007, 01:18 PM

I must admit, I really didn't like the LB (no offense to anyone that does). I really like the S Sedans we got. I think they are so cute! They look like baby Camrys! Sorry to ruin the girls think the LBs are cute rumor! Personally, I think my '98 Trans Am is sex on 4 wheels, so I wasn't as concerned about the looks of my daily driver. But, I really like the S Sedan...

Yaris Revenge · 05-30-2007, 02:05 PM

I'll be the 1st to admit (okay, maybe not THE 1st) that I like the sedan front end WAY better than the LB front. The sedan looks all sleek and business-like, which I AM fond of. However, hatch backs are crazy functional... I daresay once you go hatch, you never go back.

I'm in a Vibe right now, and I can't imagine having to deal with a sedan.

Not to mention, the LB is smaller, and IMHO, small = sporty (even if it had under 100hp). So, yeah, the LB needs that big dumb-ass grin wiped off its face, but I have every intention of doing that once I buy one toward the end of the year. That's what body kits are for!

What does wit have to do with cargo? I can understand how you came across some wit with a bad experience, though.

I'm confused with gfs. At first I thought it was the sound Mr. Snuffle-something from Sesame Street makes, but that's kind of out of context. At least I think it's out of context, but I'm not sure because it's hard to tell where the sentences stop and start as nothing is capitalized so the whole flow is off.

Maybe it's the sound Hummer owners make when they fill up their gas tanks, or maybe it's the name of some kid in Africa that will be the first African Astronaut.

I'm not sure how ivy came up as the Yaris doesn't even come in that color.

I also don't understand why you wanted to talk about your pimples. Folks on the Internet can't see your pimples anyway. Or were you speaking of Papal stuff? I don't think the Pope cares about our Yarii. Or were you trying to say papaya? I like pie.

Oh, well, I give up. I'm still not sure what you said, but if you wanted everyone to understand you and hear what you have to say then you'd have damn well spelled things out properly and used some sentence structure to begin with, wouldn't you?
