2007 Toyota Yaris Review
The good: With its small and efficient engine, the 2007 Toyota Yaris gets excellent mileage. The car's stereo plays MP3 and WMA CDs, plus it includes an auxiliary input.
The bad: Short on safety-tech standards such as antilock brakes, traction control, and side air bags, the 2007 Toyota Yaris sacrifices a lot to achieve its rock-bottom price. Cabin gadgets are also minimal.
The bottom line: The 2007 Toyota Yaris is suitable for city errands and short commutes but few other applications. Good fuel economy is nice, but poor road conditions can easily upset this little car.
