2009 Toyota Yaris User Reviews

Pros

best value in its class, amazing MPG, Nice material used, reliable Japan Made Model

Cons

power door lock & power window are not standard

After my research & comparison on Toyota Yaris & Honda fit, I decided to get the Yaris because it wins in most category & fit my needs for daily use.

The Honda fit just doesn't fit. & it's over priced.

For two fill-ups, I got 41MPG ( 40% city/ 60% highway) by driving it gentlely.

It's almost as good as a Prius. The dash board & charcoal fabric are all in excellenct quaility. It doesn't looks like a $15K car.

I'm glad that I made right decision to get this Yaris.

The drive is comfortable, smooth & relatively quiet.

The only thing I don't like is that the power door lock/ keless entry is not standard....read morehide

Pros

Gas Mileage, Parking is a breeze

Cons

I'm 6-2, 270, I fit in it but just barely

I just drove this car in Japan. It's the same as last years Toyota IST here. I love this car and will purchase one as soon as I get back to the US.
Parking and maneuvering in traffic is EASY. Very little blind spot in the back, but its not a problem with dual outside mirrors.
I fit my large self, my wife and two kids driving around Japan in this car for two weeks and we had no complaints.
The 5-door has got the "cute factor" over the 3 door hatch in my wife's opinion.
Go for the automatic transmission if you're going to be in city traffic. Constant shifting with the manual got tiresome.
Overall an AWESOME little car.
Thanks again to Toyota for showing up Honda... I'd take this over the Fit any day....read morehide
