Well, two actually, so did I drive two Yarii?
First was a two door hatch with stick, a '10. At first I thought the clutch weird, as it has like an inch of travel, but it and the trans were ok. Steering was light but not horrible. I actually liked it, didn't think it was too bad, but I had the salesguy with me so I didn't wail on it.
Next up was a '07 sedan with auto. This had all the power options I wanted, which was nice, and I thought the setup was fine. For city driving. Highway, I thought it had more noise, and of course the last thing the little 1.5 needs is the power sap of the auto trans. Overall, and not surprising, the stick is better. Visibility was good in both but I think I like the hatch better.
Small simple cars. Works for me. Not the solid tank my Jetta is, but sufficient. Now I ought to drive a sedan in stick to see if I like it more, or if four door hatch is best--I took one look at rear seat egress, and forget it. Not with kids.
