Pros: gas mileage, cute and kinda sexy styling, peppier than Aveo Cons: Space - or lack thereof. The Bottom Line: If you must be frugal, mind as well look good doing it.
Those who have read my automotive reviews, they are normally the performance-oriented kind. Even when I was going for something more street-worthy, it had to be something that performed just as well on the autocross circuit as well as livable on a daily ...

Pros: Good gas mileage; Toyota reliability; surprisingly roomy; stylish Cons: No frills; no telescoping wheel; average acoustics; misplaced instrument panel; over priced The Bottom Line: If you don’t need a car with a lot pep and want good gas mileage the Yaris might be for you, just get the highest trim level possible.
When I purchased my 2006 Honda Civic I waited months to write a review of it, but this time around Im writing a review of my new car before Ive even had to re-fill the gas tank. Im not too crazy about it and Im actually having ...

Pros: MPG, storage bins, style, interior layout, hatchback utility, ease of maintenance, owners web forums Cons: view through rear window, option pricing and availability, seat bottom comfort The Bottom Line: The most enjoyable ride for the minimum amount of fuel of the few economy class cars on the road.
To be honest, I didn't want to give up the utility of my Suzuki XL-7 small SUV, but at $3.75/gallon, the fuel savings on the Yaris makes the loan payment, and at $4 I am saving money each month. If you liked the old Civic hatchback (CRX or ...

Pros: Price $15,400 fully loaded, fuel economy, Toyota quality. 8 air bags. Cons: Funny center dash, but it is easier to use. The Bottom Line: Buy this car-still made in Japan, and if it is anything like our other Toyotas it will run 250K with minimal problems.
I needed to replace my wifes Toyota truck, and as she had been using it as a commuter (20MPG or less) we deceided that a car would be a better choice with fuel prices the way they are. We wanted to stay with Toyota, as we have owned 4 and they have ...

Pros: decent power, good mpg, tight suspension, good for city driving, comfortable seating Cons: new car smell, claustrophobic interior, very noisy and harsh ride. The Bottom Line: Best for city driving and not for extended highway driving
Cute looking little car, with very little wasted space. On the inside there are many storage areas in a car so small. There is even two glove boxes, one in the traditional location and one in front of the steering wheel. The hatchback is very ...

Pros: Good value and reputation. Cons: Possibly not comfortable on your legs. The Bottom Line: If you can stand it, you'll probably love it.
I read a review from a fellow who was 6'4". I'm not quite that tall. I'm at least 6'2", I figure. I'd like the car if my legs felt comfortable. Lack of comfort was why I traded off the Echo. In that car, the window crank knob stuck into one knee. The ...

Pros: Gas mileage, private storage, flexibility (hatchback) Cons: Seats (lumbar support), noise, ride
Good value with the car. We were able to take our Rottweiler to the vet with no problems. Car gets great gas mileage for the buck. Compare to hybrids, this car maximizes value. The car is small, noisy, and feels every bump as compared to other small cars in the class. If you are looking for luxury - this is not your car. I would recommend knowing your requirements and taking a test drive.
Awesome gas mileage, 2 consoles, water bottle holders in the dash. We purchased the extended warranty (we keep our toyota for 10 years). This is our 3rd Toyota (1995 Tercel, 2004 Matrix (we still own), and 2008 Yaris)
