I've had this car for 5 years. It's been very reliable and so great on gas. I often can't remember when I last filled it up. Very zippy and responsive ride (I had a manual). It did great for its size through the pelting rain and slushy snow we have on the coast. It has been such a hassle-less vehicle. I had to redo the brakes and that's it! Compared to my Jeep vehicle before the Yaris, it's amazing. The fold down seats in the back allowed me to fit a lot more than I expected into the vehicle. I would highly recommend this vehicle.
