On a funny side-note, Toyota actually did advertise the Yaris this year... in the movie "Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2".

apparently it isn't. Didn't realize the base miata was that light.

1) Would you trade your twin for a S-FR as it is?

2) What do you think the price is going to be?

3) S660 or S-FR?

My answers:

1) No! I wouldn't trade my Charlotte for anything but a MY201X if it came with a turbo or S/C by a miracle.

2) Price is going to be $20k+MSRP.

I say $17k or so from manufacturer and $3k because it's RWD and 6spd. That's my self factious breakdown of price. Oh baby, if it sold for about $17k base model!

3) I'm going with S-FR over S660. Toyota biased and I prefer the egg look+old-school look.
doubtful

2. If price is over 20k it won't be worth importing. They need to keep it as inexpensive as possible. If they could really make it $10k less than the FRS & Miata that would get everyone interested in a new car to at least glance at it.

3. there is zero chance of me every buying a honda. I am a devout honda hater and always will be.
