my yaris may be going to a new home...

Hey, if your single though and driving a Yaris, it is a lot tougher getting the average girl in the car for a one night stand. Let's just be honest with ourselves. The Saturn will definately get more poonani in the passenger seat.

That said, I would go for the Lotus Elise!

I have never met a girl that didn't like the Yaris. Not only that, but you can explain to her you aren't overcompensating for SHIT!

I love the look of the Yaris, but I did do alot of reading before buying. If the Yaris had poor quality issues, I would have not bought it.

And my other car is an 2000 Echo Sedan with 259 000 kilometers(160935.138 miles), and put only $300.00 repairs on for front shocks and wheel bearings. And that was because I hit a massive pot hole covered by snow. My 3 previous cars were GM's and I put a ton of money into them.(took me 3 cars to smarting up).

Most girls that I know are not car nuts. That doesn't mean they are "stupid". They simply look at a Yaris parked next to a Sky and which car would they want to hop in? Please... a convertible will always win.

I love my Yaris dearly, but it ain't no chick magnet. Which is a good thing since I'm married.

The Sky is sexy, the Yaris is cute.

Now if you were ditching the Yaris for a Camaro or a LeBaron convertible, then I would be asking you to get your head examined.

if u want chick why not a lift h2 or sumthin with a crapload of chrome....kinda like redyaris' car

[tekmoe]

kimona, i think i know where your coming from...

no wait...actually, i don't. where ARE you coming from?

[nsmitchell]

Come on Kimona, get with reality. Quality is not something you can see, only by research. Most folk look at the Yaris as a small economy car, not as a sexy sports car. I'm not bashing the Yaris at all.

I love my Yaris and I do know quite a bit about cars - BTW.

All the rims and body kits in the world won't make a Yaris look any less of what it is, a small economy car. If you think the Yaris is a chick magnet, then buddy, you are fooling yourself... except maybe Earth Day groupie chicks.

Also, I see lots of Miatas on the road, and they just all look the same to me now, but a Sky or Solstice always catches my eye. Reviews of both have not been all that terrible.

Also true of the people you will be dating!

Loving a car is such a big part of the choice--logic don't always enter into it.

Tekmoe, whatever you get, I hope you love it as much as I do my Yaris.

Yaris may not be a chick magnet but if I ever saw a guy with a Saturn or a Ford, I'm always going to have a negative thought about him in the back of my mind. That said, cars shouldn't be the chick magnet.. it should be YOU.. the guy who should be doing the magnetizing. Seriously, if you got a hot car with zero personality, then don't expect anything long term.

[nsmitchell]

I guess I'm old. Young girls may know more about cars now. When I was a teenager, it was the guy that picked up the girl, but the car sealed the deal. If he is single and wants to drive a convertible over a Yaris, hey it can't hurt, right... The Yaris is very cute, and he could catch a cute girl that may come up to ask about it. Actually, come to think of it, the Yaris is much less intimidating than a hot convertible and girls like Sherryberry might come over to comment on it's cuteness. Who knows. Just like fishing, you got to choose the right bait for the type of fish you want to catch.

yup I think guys w/ yaris are hot so all of you guys are hot! haha

Why do you think so lowly of yourself? You need a car to prop you up to the ladies? That's really sad.

And why would you want a girl that is there with you because of your car?

You need to take a step back, and do some introspection on yourself, your life, and how you value yourself.

Sell yourself to chicks with what you are, what you are about and who you are. Don't let a car do the job of a real man.

Man, you sound as though you have zero experience with girls....like a 7th grader or something. You tie what a man drives to his chances with the ladies, and that is plain sad.

If you were a high quality guy, you could drive an old junked AMC Pacer and still get lots of dates!

It's not the car, it's the driver!

By the way, what void do you hope to be compensating for, with that Saturn?

pavel has an opinion yes but there is some truth in what he says sometimes.

I also believe that a guy shouldn't rely on a car to get the girls.. that's just sad. I'd rather a guy try to get me because they like me not because they think they can with their expensive car. I look for personality.. besides, cars can change at any time. I've gone through different cars.. so can any other guy. Any girl who is with a guy for his car or money is shallow and not worth it in the long run. Pssh, in my experience, girls are more shallow than guys.

Pavel, off the soap box. Carry on.
