What age are people here? Curious what age group is buying this car.
I'm 18 and looking for something that's affordable to get me to and from work, and has some style to it. I've seen good press about the Yaris (in Europe and Japan) for a while now so glad they brought it here.

I'm 31 and bought the yaris for the daily commute. Its been getting some good press here in Australia too. So Toyota might just have a winner in their hands.

All are available in 3- or 5-door models. Ours is the 5-door YRS model. Here's a pic:

31...
I always loved the look and power/weight/economy ratio of the JDM Vitz (Gran Turismo), and the TRD options that are available for the Vitz... My 2006 Yaris RS replaced my 2004 Echo (Vitz) Hatch RS... Cheers |

People of all ages buy the Yaris. The oldest Yaris owner I have met is in his 60s.
Having seen the above pictures, I wish to congratulate the one who has bought echo_hrs' old car. Last edited by swng; 01-17-2006 at 10:46 PM. |

I'm 53. My first "small car" was a '71 Pinto (LOL). I've never owned an eight cylinder car.
