Buying a Yaris... maybe

[ZEEROLLA]

My family is looking at a new light car, have a few questions here..

1) What are the best deals around for a YR and YRS (manual)

2) also looking at a Jazz GLI and VTI, would yous choose a Yaris or Jazz? Which is more fuel economical, Yaris (DOHC) or Jazz (SOHC) and 1.3 or 1.5? The Jazz 1.3 seems to be best in terms of fuel economy so far with 4.8litres/100km on the freeway.

Cheers,

Zee

Suzuki Swift man!

Well between jazz or yaris, i'd pick yaris. Jazz is so dissapoiting. 1NZ-FE is nice small engine. If u aim fuel efficientcy,,,then i guess jazz.

i want to remain either a Toyota or Honda driver, otherwise the Swift looks alright.. fuel economy is very important right now and reliability. Both Yaris and Jazz i have no problems, i guess Yaris has an advantage being newer but the engine is not. Price wise i think the Yaris undecuts the Jazz by abit.. Yaris looking good here. ;)

U Can't go wrong with size, economy or reliability with a Jazz, Yaris or Mazda2 dude. The Hatch of the Jazz and Mazda2 is fantasic, while the huge boot of the Yaris Sedan is fantastic. In short if you go for a sedan go for a Yaris, else for a hatch, the Jazz or Mazda2 is the go.

I really like the styling of the Swift, looks tough, don't know much about them though.

New Yaris seems quite good, never really a fan of the Jazz although it has the most versatile interior.

I'd pick the Yaris on the basis it's the newest kid on the block. The others will all have replacements in the near future and depreciate quicker.
