Come on guys. People think the 07 is ugly too. But it grows on you. I actually think it's cute now.

The new edition.It will take time before we start to love it.It's more aggressive up front and has a low stance.

Gone are the inside compartments of the 07 the new one has less storage insdie.Plus the dash is not center.

One plus is the increase in luggage space though.I saw them on the show room.Very different and yet kind of similar

to the second gen.

SE
Steering gear ratio = 46.17
Lock to lock turn = 2.3 turns
Turning circle = 36.7 ft

None-SE
Steering gear ratio = 49.93
Lock to lock turn = 3.0 turns
Turning circle = 30.8 ft (which means the longer wheel base than the previous gen Yaris did not affect the turning circle)

They actually made the new car turn sharper than the previous gen.

Steering Ratio (:1), Overall: 19.7

Lock to Lock Turns (Steering): 3.0

Turning Diameter - Curb to Curb: 32.6'

32.6' is for the sedan.
liftback is 30.8', which is the same as none-SE 2012.
