What age are people here? Curious what age group is buying this car. - Page 8 - Toyota Yaris Forums

ItsMyDaily · 10-06-2006, 10:42 AM

I'm 21, and switched to the Yaris from my 2004 S2K.

I was tired of making high monthly payments for the S(even though I could have continued), and decided to sell her. Saving a ton of money with the yaris on payments, and a ton on gas too

. Plus I graduate with my degree in a year and a haf, and with the money I'm saving I'll be able to get any vehicle my bog heart desires.

18..in college..living on my own...dont think is a better option than the yaris for someone like myself. econobox = less money = good!

Give me a "Hell Yeah" if you bought this car and you are broke as f*ck, and still couldnt be happier!!!!

I, like many others in this forum, could have Lexus, BMW or Benz but we chose our Yaris for that Toyota quality that has brought them to the #1 car manifacturer in the world.... oh yeah... the price and MPG helped a bit to, can't pass up a good deal when ya see one

Sorry if I gave the impression that the only reason I bought the Yaris was money, because that is not the case. Its an awesome car.

I think some Yaris reviewers mentioned something true..Yaris is aimed for young people, whose buying capabilities are not are not fully developed, and when they get a better income, by having a great experience with a Yaris, they will buy Camry..

by the way i'm 27

evilnissan · 10-12-2006, 11:18 AM

I am 25 and I think this will be my next car.

As much as I want a Subaru it will be a smarter move money wise to buy a cheap, fuel effecent car until I get a more stable income.

Then there's this 55 year old who got tired of the 2005 TRD 4 dr Tundra and decided the right thing to do was give up the egocentric gas hog. Euro versions of the Yaris are better appointed and driven by adults with no plan to upgrade as income increases. In this house we're downgrading to an early retirement. The decision was work harder for a more luxurious car or do something fun and give back to my community....full hippy in a Yaris for me....
Just wish the bastards at Toyota would've let me buy a diesel!!
