I love this car.
When I bought this car, I didn't know how to drive a stick shift. After a few weeks of trial and error, I started to get the hang of it. Now I am in love with being more in control of my vehicle. The engine has a nice gentle purr. At first, I did not like that the speedometer was in the center of the dash. Now I do not even notice. For being such a small car, there is a surprising amount of leg space. I get amazing gas mileage. Sometimes as much as 43 mpg. There is ample trunk space. I can not believe the amount of stuff I can transport. Many times I have put the seats down, and I don't even have to break down my fishing gear. After having the car for almost six years, the interior is still in great shape. The engine compartment is set up in a way that it has been really easy to do most of my own maintenance. It has been really easy to put my dogs car seats in and out of the back seat. It only takes a lift of a tab and the seats swing down no physical work required. There is not a lot of head clearance in the car for my taller passengers. Overall, this has been a reliable and rugged vehicle.

Cheap and reliable.
The Yaris model I purchased was literally the cheapest car on the Toyota dealer's lot, priced right at $10,000. If you are looking for frills and comfort, this is not the car for you. No power windows or power locks, no automatic transmission, no built-in GPS. It's Basic with a capital 'B.' If you want absolutely reliable, problem-free transportation, though? The Yaris cannot be beat. In the decade I've had it, I have not had to pay for a single repair, other than normally-scheduled maintenance. In the middle of winter? It's going to start 100% of the time and handle well on snowy or wet roads. The back seat is reasonably roomy and the trunk offers a surprising amount of storage. It's not the most powerful car around. You feel like a minnow swimming in a shark tank when you're driving on the interstate with larger and more powerful vehicles. For daily commuting, though, it's great. The small size makes it easy to park and the gas mileage in town is close to 40 MPG. The one oddity is the placement of the speedometer and other gauges. Rather than being in the driver's line of sight, all the dashboard displays are in the center of the car. Presumably, this is a cost-cutting measure that saves Toyota from having to retool the dashboard and wiring for left-side driving countries.

I love this car. The fuel economy is great for a non-hybrid car, averaging close to 40 miles per gallon. The car is well built, with no mechanical issues in the 5 years I have owned it. It's a quiet ride, with no interior noise coming from components. I love the way it handles, and the turn radius is great......Allowing me to turn on a dime. And it's zippy......I have no problems with acceleration to a higher speed. The cloth seats are comfortable and preferable to me, since I don't buy anything with leather. Even though the car is small, there is ample room in the front seat/passenger seat area (or cockpit), even for a person with long legs. I really like the fact that I purchased a hatchback, which allows me to fold the back seat down for additional cargo space. It's amazing what I can get in my car. I purchased 4 patio sling chairs a couple of years ago, and I was able to fit them inside of my car!
