2007 toyota yaris

[RoadDawg]

id also look at the toyota echo, and the scion xA

persoanlly id go with a VW rabbit for a small car

Yaris has replaced the Echo. Only way he would be able to get one is by going used.

2 of my friends have yaris'. being a big guy, as in tall not fat, they are pretty damn small. they also dont have any power what so ever. its pretty sad. other than that, reasonably low price compared to most others, and it gets AWESOME mileage. wish my truck did (i get about 8 to the gallon on the highway, which i avoid)

Most cars with weak power get awesome MPG, it's the ones that have the power that get 20's.

The one I tested, was weak but it would reach highway speeds by the time it was time to merge on the freeway (Freeway was doing 60's *rare in SoCal*) so it was ok to deal with.

kosmo, AC does not effect the Yaris. Try it!!

Does being a lard tub affect it? If so, Soopa is going to have a lot of trouble getting up to highway speeds of 75ish on an uphill on ramp. Especially if that girl is in the car with him.

I had an 88 tercel, great car. Don't fixate on the Yaris, plenty of similar cars out there.

Don't buy one price no haggle "hype". Saturn has tried it on there vehicles, as has Porsche. Even though you may buy at "one price" various dealer fees (docking, paperwork, etc.) are not part of that one price and are likely still open to negotiation.

I'd suggest looking at a Scion xB. If you like a unique car with character, they are awesome and cheap.

I got mine because I really liked the looks of them, but once I got it I was amazed at the amount of room in the xB. It can easily seat 5 large adults in it no problems.

At least try to find one locally to drive.

If you've got a Catalina, why do you want another car?

[Soopa Villain17]

its an antique , we have snow here in maine and i need something a lil better in the stuff and something a lil newer. im keeping it though

[Bear_Claw]

Dont discount off lease cars just yet.

I just bought my 2004 VW jetta TDI last month with 2 years warrenty and 40,000kms not a huge selling feture for me as im a mehcanic but none the less kinda nice that i aint gottta do anything to it for a couple years. Its low milage and i got it for the price of a new yaris and its MUTCH more o a car. Its averaging 50mpg and this thing can MOVE (its way too easy to speed LOL). Car looks smells and drives like brand new. I still kept my beater pickup truck for a work hourse and drive my car for everything else i love it.

Under the hood


All that being said if you are looking new regardless the accents a nice little car (driven a few and liked em for the price) and my mother had a hyundai santa fe in 2001 that was a great little SUV. Never had a prob with it she just needed more seats. Was even fun to drive 4cylder stick shift.

[Soopa Villain17]

im not gunna get a *brand new* car now. my insurance will be over 300 a month. so ive been looking at newer cars. ive found some nice ones. one in perticular is an 04 focus se wagon. has 37k miles , mint shape , the 2.3 liter with 5spd. there askign around 10 thousand. theres also a few others like an 02 passat 1.8t with 32k for 13 thousand. an 99 f250 w/ triton v10 for around 10k with 89 thosuand miles. a 00 dodge ram sport with 318, mint shape , ext cab for 10k. to many choices

[SpecialBlend2786]

I thought you were looking for something with good milage?

a v10 won't really do that for ya....

[MANN]

Soopa, he was being sarcastic.

If you are interested in the Yaris, also check out the Scion Xa, the Honda Fit, and the Nissan Versa. I'm a big fan of toyota (and scion, since it IS toyota), but any of those cars are roughly comparable, and should be reliable. I think the Fit is the best looking one of the bunch, myself.

Toyota Scion = Toaster.
