2009 Toyota Yaris 5 door

Looks pretty sharp with the aero kit: http://www.leftlanenews.com/toyota-y...hatchback.html

The lack of a tachometer in the 3 door had me---> Glad Toyota added one on the 5 door.

If I was in the market for a affordable daily driver (so my Cooper S would remain garage queen ) then my choices would be the Yaris 5 door, Honda Fit and the Scion xD. And maybe the Kia Rio 5 door.

really... that sucks. my Fit's door doesn't sound heavy duty like
my MCS's door, but it doesn't sound THAT light either.

My mom just bought the Versa. It was cheap and very nicely equipped.
It makes for very comfortable basic transport.

I've been told the Fit has a better 1/4 mi time then the Versa but my mom said the Fit felt much less sporty during the test drive.
