Love the gas mileage and low fuel costs! Very Comfortable on long trips for my 5ft 7 inch frame. Very quiet! I can hold Blue Tooth Cell phone conversations at highway speed. Love the small car maneuverability after years of driving a Dodge Grand Caravan. Very quick steering and short turn radius.

Best car I've ever owned

I bought the Yaris in a pinch when my old one blew up and left me stranded. I needed a car in a hurry and I was craving reliability after that car maintenance fiasco - so I went straight to Toyota. I've had the car for a year an a half and 18,000 miles. I love it. No problems at all, drove it from St. Louis to Galveston and back comfortably with 2 people and a dog on board. It has better acceleration, a smoother and quieter ride and overall better quality than any other small car that I've ever had - or been riding in for that matter. Also easy to get in and out of, even the back seat, even for my 6'4" brother. I would recommend this car to anyone, 100 times over.

Best for Buck, I never expand single $ except windshield wipers after 3 years, windshield fluid every six months, Oil change every month, battery after 4 years, staring fluid after 3 years, breaks each year and tires after every 2 years. timing belt after 6 years. This car starts every day and runs smoothly since April 2009. I recommend this car for a college student or recent pass out and daily commuters. It is good at wet and snow too just use good brand tires like Bridgestone, Firestone or BFGoodrich.

paint is real failure

If you are concerned about how the body of the car looks, this car is not a good bet. Paint began deteriorating at 6 years and has grown steadily worse.
