I have a Yaris. I think it's really cute! I have the T3 plus so it has all the little extras. I'm still learning how to drive but compared to the other cars I've driven it's easier to drive and more fun. Be sure to do your research and obviously test drive it as it's a personal choice- My older brother hates driving it because it's not as powerful as his car. I don't know all the specifications but from my limited experience, it's a great car.

Seriously consider the Honda Fit, Dodge Caliber, and Nissan Versa before you get stuck with a Yaris. If you are looking at style the Dodge CAliber is right for you, it has above average reliability paired with a good looking car and cool features. If fun and functionality is your priority, get a Honda Fit. The Fit is easily the most versatile car in its class with its adjustable seats, and it is also said to be the funnest. The Versa is the biggest and safest. The Versa is built with the highest quality parts in the class that you wouldnt expect to find in a budget car, and aced the NHSTA crash test. These cars have many advantages over the Yaris, still have the same fuel economy, and cost about the same (with options). The Yaris is a bare-bones car, you have to add every option you want jacking the price up, while its competitors have that all standard. Toyotas "legendary" reliability, that always wound up coming second to Honda, and Toyotas reliability is fading. Last year Toyota had the most recalls, but the media "failed" to notice since millions would stand against them because of thier reputation. These days reputation is nothing, technology advances so fast it cant keep up. Ford also had more recalls than GM and DaimlerChrysler combined, for reasons like exploding engines and wheels falling off. Common problems with Toyotas are , cheap stereos, grotesquely underpowered 4 cylinder engines, and plastic rattling until it falls off. People then complain that when they take it to the dealer to be fixed they just say "The cars are made with so much plastic its practically impossible to fix". Just look at the competition, and you will see you cant assume somethings the best just because its a Toyota.

A good car but the safety ratings are good for frontal and only acceptable for side. There is really little legroom in the rear seats. But a Toyota Yaris should last a pretty long time.

Toyota Yaris is small city car with good fuel economy. Also this car is practical and spacious. So i think that your choice is good, because Yaris worth its price. If you need some useful and interesting information about this car or some fine pictures, check the web.

The Toyota Yaris has consistently rated highly in all the reviews I've read. Good handling, fuel efficient and low ownership costs.

I have a black automatic 4 door Yaris and I dig it. 40 MPH, and the interior is cool. Toyotas never die either. I like that the gauges are in the middle and tall people aren't really cramped. Good Luck.

Do a search for consumer satisfaction on them. You can also check out the Institute for Highway Safety for crash test ratings and the NTSB for possible recalls on Yaris. I have heard that they are good on gas mileage, but other than that I have not heard much about them.
