Toyota Yaris 2009 4dr Hatchback
Pros: Fuel economy
Cons: window/interior design
Bought this 1 yr ago, was looking for a low-priced car with top-end fuel economy. I'm not expecting a luxury car for the price but no doubt I wouldn't buy another. Back seats fold down but in a clunky way, it came with no armrest!! I bought mine with Auto, AC, pwr windows/locks, cruise, and I had to buy an aftermarket armrest!! The thing I hate most is when you open the windows while driving, you get this hard to describe noise, it gives me a headache. I can't describe it but I can't drive with the windows open. Only card I've owned that (I've had several) did that.
