2007 Toyota Yaris Hatchback 2dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl 5M)
Great on Gas, Poor on Reliability
 I average 32mpg in city per tank, 40mpg pure highway driving.  Ample storage. Enough power to get you moving. Throttle response varies from 0.2 sec (noticeable, but on par with other DBW cars) to well OVER a second on warm days (omg what is wrong w/ my car).  Variable means you can't adapt to it because it changes.  This causes premature clutch wear because rev-matching for downshifts cannot be done reliably.  Toyota will not warranty clutch repair no matter how few miles.  Mine is still holding on, but it has developed a shudder at 20k miles... it's just a matter of time.  No tach available on the manual hatchback. I'm on my 3rd factory MP3 stereo.
