  • Excellent for the Price! - 2007 Toyota Yaris
    By -

    I just purchased this vehicle on the 23rd of March, so my review is based on only 500 miles of usage. This vehicle is an excellent price, it handles corners very well, it has enough get-up-and-go on the highways that I have to be careful, it is extremely well-designed. Im a large person (63, 260 lbs.) and I have no shortage of space. I took my parents and wife for a drive and no one was cramped. The back seat has an unusual amount of room. I have plenty of head and leg room, and if you need to, the back seat folds flat for a good amount of cargo space. And at 40 mpg, who can complain. Im saving enough to cover my car payment!

  • 37 Miles to the gallon - 2007 Toyota Yaris

    I am very analytical and chose my Yaris based on reviews and talking with Toyota employees and a lot of research. I have found the car to be extremely well built and have literally had no problems with it, (knock on wood). The warranty just ran out so we will see if it does stand the test of time. I was driving quite far everyday and driving about 70/30 highway and getting (even w/ the A/C on) about 36-37 mpg with the Yaris and its an automatic. I am a bit of a lead foot too. So I would recommend this to anyone looking for a reliable, efficient and cost effective car. Keep it maintained and it should last no problem.

  • Love my little car! - 2007 Toyota Yaris
    By -

    Ive had my hatchback for a month now and I love it. This car is so much fun to drive. Its very roomy in the front seats for such a small car. So far Im getting about 37 mpg which seems good to me. Its a little loud on the highway but feels very stable. I would have purchased the power package but it wasnt available in NH.

  • Brand New Yaris - First Impressions - 2007 Toyota Yaris
    By -

    We picked up our Yaris under a week ago so this is definitely a first impression, but Ill keep you updated. Although very small there is generous room inside and a surprising amount of rear leg room. Several people sat in the drivers seat and one 62 would have a difficult time driving the car. The center mounted speedometer took all of 10 minutes to adjust to. We put 240 miles on a trip this weekend, very little highway, and used half a tank of gas. Based on the tank size it calculates out to 42.2 MPG. Probably 40 mpg is more reasonable. Exterior is black metalflake - very nice paint. I would recommend this car to anyone!

    The only thing I have to tell about the drive is simple. The best thing to do before driving this car is to start the engine, put it on drive, hold the brake and wait for one or even 2 minutes like this. After what you can enjoy a perfectly warm oil for the transmission and a better engine and transmission maintenance over a long period.

    Hello Yaris! I needed a small commuter after 95K miles of long distance traveling on my old job. I have put 1000 miles on my new 07 Yaris and I have no regrets. Getting 35 mpg combined city/hwy, love the velvety smooth 5-speed, electronic steering (so easy for city parking), peppy pick up, great handling. Thought I would hate the center speedo but I love it at night, no glaring speedo in front of you. Yaris gets me lots of looks - never thought a car could be cute, but this is!

  • Liftback Lover - 2007 Toyota Yaris
    By -

    I purchased my Yaris liftback about 2 years ago, and its the first car that never gave me buyers remorse. Ive owned luxury cars, 4x4s, station wagons, sedans, and sports cars. Every one of them forced me to compromise. Im in a band, and I can fit a Marshall half-stack, 2 JBL monitor cabs, 4 guitars, a bag of cords, a change of clothes, and my girlfriend in my Yaris. Usually, five can ride comfortably. Its so good on gas, I sometimes forget which side the gas caps on. This car is the perfect blend of economy, utility, and style. Complete strangers are so fascinated by it, they strike up conversations with me in parking lots. With rising fuel costs, this car is the way to go.

  • Dont Have a Fender Bender! - 2007 Toyota Yaris

    I rear-ended another vehicle that left a dent on their bumper and did $3500 damage to my Yaris! Why so fragile? And the airbag didnt even go off. I love the car. I put the back seat down and use the hatchback/space like its a pickup truck for building and garden supplies, etc. Its amazing what you can get in that little car. My manual transmission and reasonable driving practices result in >40 mpg IN TOWN! I love this car, I just wish it werent so fragile.

    About 2 weeks ago I got my new red Yaris! I know I havent had it that long, but so far I love it. It handles really well, its fun to drive and it looks great! I love the design.

  • Gas saver - 2007 Toyota Yaris
    By -

    Love this car, first tank from dealer, got 401 miles, wasnt sure how many gal they had put in, but with a 11.1 gal tank I knew I was close to 40 mpg. Let the last bar start flashing before I filled tank, drove 5 miles while it flashed, stuffed 10.6 gal in the tank and took off, I work a midnight shift which is an advantage with traffic, as in I rarely have to stop. 100 mile round trip, lite traffic, and this tank I did not use this A.C. keep that in mind, kept it as close to speed limit as possible, very rare to go over 70 mph, this car love to go 60 mph, anyway I made one tire pressure adjustment from 29 lbs (dealer) to 35 lbs. Drove the 10.6 gals for 449 miles for 42.3 mpg. Love it!
