well the yaris better step it up because people are stuffing k20 motors into honda fits. IMO the fit is a nicer car.

the yaris is 2290lbs for the liftback.. about 100 lbs lighter than the xA i think..

and with the engine compartment as roomy as it is.. it should be easy to do an engine swap just like paul did... i think he's the one with the 14.3.. i dunno... but he does have a different engine in his xA (he's the guy in the scion commercial.. orange xA)

yeah... the yaris, i expect to be a really quick car with a proper setup.

Yaris could DEFINETELY be a sleeper with the right amount of money invested in the right areas.
