I also drive a Yaris, gen 2, 2006. Man, I love that car, it's super roomy for it's small size and weight, so reliable and fuel efficient, but IT'S NOT A SPORTY car at all. Maybe newer ones are, but this one IS NOT, and it's not a good idea to recommend it as such at all. It's a tall, narrow, low-length and lightweight car, and as such - kinda prone to steering issues, sliding or rolling over, just like other similar cars - A class, Twingo etc.
@@lokisgodhi No, no,,, What does "bars" mean. I've started hearing this in Epic Rap battles and now in the youtube comments, and googleing it doesn't tell me squat.

As someone that was just gifted a base model Yaris, and drove it from Virginia to New Mexico. I am glad to see it on this list. I was binge listing to your videos on the cross country drive back and it actually got me really excited to do my own work and put some mods on it. I’ve never been a car guy, but your videos have changed that. Really looking forward to getting to know this little car better!
To add to that, if i remember correctly, only the current gen US spec Yaris is a rebadged Mazda 2, the older US spec Yaris (the blue one they showed) was mostly Toyota.
@@raomar0 Only the 2015-present Yaris sedans are rebadged Mazda 2's. All 4 generations of the Yaris hatchbacks are designed and built by Toyota. Also for 5 years, I owned a 2012 3-door hatch 1.5 with a manual transmission and the 0-60mph time is 8.5 seconds, not the 9.6 seconds it mentions in the video.
I was the youngest in a family of 5 when our main car was a 5 speed manual, 2 door yaris. We went on vacations, hockey tournaments, etc in that tiny little car. It was a tank. I learned to drive manual in it. Wish I'd kept it because I'd be rallying it as we speak.
I'll never forget how amazed I was when my friend drove us in a Mk1 Golf diesel. I kept telling him to slow the f down since traffic cops and all and he was like what do you mean, I'm going barely 70 (km/h), which isn't even 50 mph. I felt like we were flying because of how light and shitboxy it was!
Pump is not kidding about the Sidekicks off-road fun. There was a off-road club near me that consisted mostly of Trackers and Sidekicks. My best friend had one that was lifted on 33in tire. Absolute Armageddon Machine. Unstoppable.
A cereal advertisement by a TH-camr? I almost cried tears of joy for finally seeing a different product for a change... Everyone seems to have the same 4 sponsers. I'm speechless.
@- how many grams? found it 198 grams, damn. I get 907 grams/ 3.99$ so you're getting 19.8grams per dollar & im coming from 227.3~ grams per dollar, That cereal is 45.8~ Times more expensive.
Most fun I've ever had at a track was racing in a Yugo race. They made less horsepower than a garbage disposal, but everyone couldn't stop laughing the entire race. Also, it was only 20 laps on a half mile oval and only 4 of the 12 cars finished 🤣
One of my favorite cars I've had was an 04 xB - the TRD lowering springs and some halfway decent tires allowed it to be absolutely flung around corners, but then you could haul a stack of six pallets or a loveseat in the back (I've done both). They were on the same platform as the early Yaris, but with somewhat shorter gearing. Also, tortoises have stompy feet, turtles have flippy feet.
I hated them at first cause my brother bought one new and had 1000s in repairs before 50k but now i like them and realize his must have been built on a friday lol
My family had a yaris and it was super reliable till the end Someone crashed us and it was a pretty bad crash but the damn car was so well built the inside didn't have any damages even tho we lost the car in the crash Rip yaris never forget
One of my favorite cars I’ve owned was a 95 Toyota Tercel, 2 door 5 speed. It was like a go-kart, but slower. My buddy had a 4speed 4 door Tercel, we used to have so much fun with them
Hell yeah, I’ve had my 95 Tercel for almost 20 years, little 2 door with a 4spd manual, it’s not fast but it’s definitely fun to drive because it’s crazy light. I put some 15” Miata wheels and tires on it. 330k and it just won’t die
In my opinion, 2007 Peugeot Partner 1.4i with a straigh pipe. Its a white little van from Peugeot that makes loads of noise but still goes slow. The way people look at you driving it is just priceless. I had fun with mine until the fuel pump died, parked it for the past 10 months since you need to drop the tank to change it. I installed LPG as well for extra cheap drip
Been daily-ing a first gen xB for about 9 years now and while there are obviously better cars available, this thing has never let me down. Actually goes decent in the snow, and the community around this car was super supportive. Cool to see it mentioned on Donut for a longer period in this video 😄
manual Honda Accord - everyone knows civics are fun, but civic's older, more serious brother accord is very similar, and it has bigger engine, moar powah baby, bigger brakes, beefier suspension
Civic: the younger, skinny, zippy sibling Accord: the beefy older brother Prelude: the jock that can do everything the other two can, and gets the attention
I bought a 2 door 2007 Yaris RS for my kids to drive and I absolutely love driving this thing. I put TRD springs and rear sway bar so it sits lower, doesn't look quite as goofy, and now it actually handles. Great little fun car to drive!!
Gen1 xB is really cheap now... especially since Toyota axed the Scion line. A lot of people don't realize you can still get parts easily from Toyota (OEM Parts) and 3rd party suppliers.
Prius 2 Eco, 121 hp, 3k lbs, power mode = sooooo sooo fun. Having the immediate acceleration from the electric engine makes it really enjoyable and useful to beat beefier cars out of a light when they're in the lane that you need to be in. Also, a blast on curvy mountain roads. Sliding around turns and punching it halfway through. Drive it like you stole it and still get 53 mpg is a win in my book
I think the main reason the Saturn Sky didn't sell is at the same time is they were also selling the Pontiac Solstice which for what ever reason was $2-5000 cheaper. Where I live the people who bought the Solstice were fanatics that held onto them for years because they loved them.
Here’s a good way to approach cars. This goes for motorcycles and guitars and guns and such: They’re all fun. If you don’t think so, then you’ve been made into a jaded person.
iirc they use some kind of wax to protect the interior which is sick in the first ten years but then it starts to melt and makes your car smell like a kindergarten classroom. 90's and early 2000s Mercedes smell the same way.
I genuinely love your content and I want you guys to know you've turned me into a car guy over the past 2 years. I always felt like that culture was for a bunch of toxic bro dudes and it kind of is. But there's room for people who just love cars or even just their car and dont need to be the fastest or have the most money and you guys helped me get to this point so thank you.
Another fun one is the honda fit surprisingly its a slow car looks like a grandma car but I have drifted that thing on grave around 90 degree turns going 40. The automatic has a 5 speed with paddle shifters. Its actually pretty fun to drive on dirt roads and treat it like a rally car and if you mod it it could probably come out as a pretty ok rally car.
That's true af, no point driving a ferrari 488 at 20mph in the city streets, it's so boring, and can't go quick in the bends on country roads cos you'll break the speed limit so easily
I actually own a 2006 Toyota Yaris and honestly it's a fun car to drive 😂 Really nice car for busy towns cause while everyone else is driving their sedans and coupes I'm just always moving through traffic like I'm on a motorcycle😂 and it go's around corners with ease at higher speeds and the car feels planted and I haven't dropped it or did any mods on it yet.
You know one time a little video game magazine decided that they could make games as good as the ones they wrote about. That company was Game Freak and they created the largest media franchise in the world. So maybe donut making cars isnt the craziest thing in the world!
I learned to drive in a 5-door Subaru Justy with selective 4WD. It may have had an anemic 3 cylinder engine, but some of the most fun I’ve had driving was flogging that thing downhill in the winter.
The reference to, "The Room" was fantastic!!! LOL I'm looking at that Saturn Sky. I remember working at Yamaha in San Antonio and a Saturn dealer was next door. I checked it out and it was nice!
My 84 fiero had 92 horsepower and was auto. I knew nothing about cars but doing winter drifting and donuts and going 103 on the highway was hilarious fun.
I though it was hilarious but one of my buddy’s literally grinded world of Warcraft then sold all his gold in game and made enough to buy a cabriolet vw
I have a 2012 1.4 diesel yaris with a six-speed manual (I live in Spain) and I've done several 300-mile+ trips with 4 people and luggage and the car just goes. 130k kilometers and absolutely zero problems except for a battery that died at 80k. I absolutely love this car but I think it could use more power (only 90hp)so I'll probably buy a performance chip :)
Once saw a Buick Roadmaster on a Camping ground in the Netherlands. It was longer than half the caravans there and the guy who owned it ended up telling everyone everything about it all day long. It was basically the center of attention for a week. He refilled 4 times between Berlin and the destination, averaging about 5 mpg ^^
I had a 2004 Scion XB, and it was one of the most fun cars I ever had (and reliable - I forgot how to open the hood). I bought it because it was 'nimble'. I even slid it around corners a few times. I wish they would bring it back - it was so fun, and roomy, and practical, and reliable.
My dad just bought a 2019 Yaris hatchback with a manual and it is a blast to throw it around corners. Its stock and handles better than my trans am which has a fully built suspension
James: The Yaris is the smallest car in the Toyota Line-up. Me: Wait... do they not have the AYGO in the States? You can add that to the awesome cars you missed out on.
The Toyota AYGO would be 100% in this list if it where in the states! So much fun to floor it and drive it WAY faster through corners than what should be physically possible. The sentence he said about driving slow cars fast? The AYGO was born for this. Incredible car.
The Wigo is a Daihatsu Ayla only sold as a Wigo in the Philippines and a few countries in that area. In Europe, we also have the Aygo (also as a Peugeot and Citroen, developed in a joint venture), which I believe is even smaller.
I gotta agree with James I used to hate the scion xb until my s.o's mother made me drive when they invited me to dinner and to this day I appreciate them and always look forward to drive there car whenever I get invited for dinner
absolutely seconded. as another fellow yaris owner this car is amazing. also helps that it holds up quite nicely you can buy it 10+ years old and expect it to be good for another few years. such a forgiving car outside of the road
@@paskariu I got a 08 it’s lasted me through very rough winter had hella fun with it and still do I used to backroad it it’s a great drift car my e break broke but if it was fixed it be even better on dirt roads or course lol
1st gen yaris is hella fun. Other than regular maintenance, oil, filter, coolant, etc. It just runs forever. Just replaced the mounting, lower arm, cheap and it runs likenew. It just won't die..
I actually saw a VW Cabriolet today on my commute home from work & it made me do a rubberneck for a second. It was just really unique & it stood out amongst the ocean of crossovers & pickup trucks. I didn't even know what it was, but I saw the VW badge. Such a weird coincidence that I saw this video in the same day!
I appreciate seeing a teeny tiny Toyota on this list. The Aygo (the smallest Toyota available in Europe, one notch smaller than the Yaris) is among my favourite cars of all time.
Careful with those simply because they may end up costing you more $$ to maintain the older they are due to the giant battery replacement cost. The batteries are good for 8 years or 100k miles. If the car is nearing that mileage or age expect to have to drop $3-4K on replacing that battery. The battery alone is about $2.5K & that's without labor.
The bad rep of Priuses (Prii?) came from the early adopters being like "I'm saving the world by driving this", "you shouldn't drive that kind of car, it's killing the environment" but actually, it isn't that bad if I'm being honest (although the design could use some work, but what do I know?)
I’ve had a beautiful low down blue modified coupe and a roaring V5 but the car I will always miss was my 1.6 Skoda Felicia. It weighed less than a tonne so it was Chuck-able and I could absolutely hoon it everywhere without getting in trouble

The automatic has a 5 speed with paddle shifters. Its actually pretty fun to drive on dirt roads and treat it like a rally car and if you mod it it could probably come out as a pretty ok rally car.

“Driving slow cars fast is way more fun than driving fast cars slow”
I really felt that
That's true af, no point driving a ferrari 488 at 20mph in the city streets, it's so boring, and can't go quick in the bends on country roads cos you'll break the speed limit so easily
overtaking with 100hp is it's own thrill as well
What about an average car (2010 afFORDable Fusion) at average speed?
I felt that driving my 80's EP70 Starlet
I love passing people at 80 in my shitty xB
I actually own a 2006 Toyota Yaris and honestly it's a fun car to drive 😂
Really nice car for busy towns cause while everyone else is driving their sedans and coupes I'm just always moving through traffic like I'm on a motorcycle😂 and it go's around corners with ease at higher speeds and the car feels planted and I haven't dropped it or did any mods on it yet.
Why do I feel like he’s not kidding when talking about buying Saturn...
He should totally do it. Car guys making cars for car guys? Sounds like a great way to go bankrupt
LOFA Taco, I know he actually sounded serious
You know one time a little video game magazine decided that they could make games as good as the ones they wrote about. That company was Game Freak and they created the largest media franchise in the world. So maybe donut making cars isnt the craziest thing in the world!
he should do it, saturn is awesome
9:56 “The sky is the sort of car you buy when you’re mid way through your life and in a crisis, they should come up with a term for that” looooool
I learned to drive in a 5-door Subaru Justy with selective 4WD. It may have had an anemic 3 cylinder engine, but some of the most fun I’ve had driving was flogging that thing downhill in the winter.
Hey man’s Subarus are cool a lot of them have all wheel drive
UK viewers: In the UK our cereal IS healthy
US viewers: We drink sugar from the packet
Why did you bring that shit up
YOLO
@- it is awful man
Wait, our ceelral is helf
The reference to, "The Room" was fantastic!!! LOL
I'm looking at that Saturn Sky. I remember working at Yamaha in San Antonio and a Saturn dealer was next door. I checked it out and it was nice!
Have you watched Doug DeMuro's Pontiac Solstice episode yet?
Anyone else get nervous when James is playing with the cord to his mic
He's losing it a bit and like it
I had A-class Mercedes from 2001 with 1.6L engine. Very fun to drive except for the weird clutch pedal. The car was more dynamic than I tought.
I had to get a sticker for my xB that says “0-60 Eventually” 🤣
that’s hilarious man might have to do that when i inherit my moms avalon🤣
"It does 0-60 on a good day."
0-60 in 3-5 business days
Yeah I need one too
I love how they say a car has only 100hp when in Germany basically most cars are under that.
ja
Well, I guess gasoline prices are lower in a country that is in a perpetual war for cheap oil.
@@rubenvd3913 Dont know the US Gas Prices but in Germany its 7.50$ per gallon (~1.37€ per liter)
1 hp < 1ps
@@melvin1581 The diff between hp and ps is so small it only makes a difference at like >600
My 84 fiero had 92 horsepower and was auto. I knew nothing about cars but doing winter drifting and donuts and going 103 on the highway was hilarious fun.
I though it was hilarious but one of my buddy’s literally grinded world of Warcraft then sold all his gold in game and made enough to buy a cabriolet vw
This is one of the most mid-2000 comments ever
"You look at the yaris and what do u think"
*Drift missile*
You'd just need some pvc pipe: th-cam.com/video/HpMRysSYzSc/w-d-xo.html
Rola swap
"You look at the yaris, what do you see ?"
me: Reliability
I had one for over 100k, until a deer. I can attest to that, zero problems with the car.
@@noneyabizz8337 what
I have a 2012 1.4 diesel yaris with a six-speed manual (I live in Spain) and I've done several 300-mile+ trips with 4 people and luggage and the car just goes. 130k kilometers and absolutely zero problems except for a battery that died at 80k. I absolutely love this car but I think it could use more power (only 90hp)so I'll probably buy a performance chip :)
@@hybridShinx he drove it for over 100,000 miles without having any problems with the car, and then he hit a deer.
@@El-Burrito I thought "until a deer" meant something more complex among car people... Turns out my first guess was right.
Once saw a Buick Roadmaster on a Camping ground in the Netherlands. It was longer than half the caravans there and the guy who owned it ended up telling everyone everything about it all day long. It was basically the center of attention for a week. He refilled 4 times between Berlin and the destination, averaging about 5 mpg ^^
dear Max"the editor" idk your last name
we need more prank edits like in 9:00 keep it up
The end.
Day 2 of asking Donut to bring back Bart and Science garage.
I had a 2004 Scion XB, and it was one of the most fun cars I ever had (and reliable - I forgot how to open the hood). I bought it because it was 'nimble'. I even slid it around corners a few times. I wish they would bring it back - it was so fun, and roomy, and practical, and reliable.
Straight up just yelling "NO" at the screen when the Mirano came up.
datarez evoque
But it has a 350Z engine under the hood bro.
I got smoked by Murano once and never looked at Yoshi the same 😂😂😂
Honestly it looks so stupid, but I had one blow me out of the fuckin water once, so I can’t complain lmao
Anthony Powell my mom had a Murano and it could fucking move lmao
This episode reminds me that EVERY car is actually fun when you have good company..
My dad just bought a 2019 Yaris hatchback with a manual and it is a blast to throw it around corners. Its stock and handles better than my trans am which has a fully built suspension
James: The Yaris is the smallest car in the Toyota Line-up.
Me: Wait... do they not have the AYGO in the States? You can add that to the awesome cars you missed out on.
Don’t forget the Toyota iQ....
@@mathiasbernier304 we had it as the Scion iQ, but you know ...RIP
Jacob Adkins I didn’t knew Scion made their iQ variant
Y @gg )
The Toyota AYGO would be 100% in this list if it where in the states!
So much fun to floor it and drive it WAY faster through corners than what should be physically possible. The sentence he said about driving slow cars fast? The AYGO was born for this. Incredible car.
James: "...its the smallest car in Toyotas lineup..." (Yaris)
Wigo: am I a joke to you?
The Wigo is a Daihatsu Ayla only sold as a Wigo in the Philippines and a few countries in that area.
In Europe, we also have the Aygo (also as a Peugeot and Citroen, developed in a joint venture), which I believe is even smaller.
How bout the Aygo?
Or Agya
@@Timooooooooooooooo Also the iq
He literally said “the prius is an extremely cool car” you couldve gone back 5 seconds lol
The edit was so much funnier though lol
I was expecting the five second rewind but I was still funny to have the edit we got😂
I gotta agree with James I used to hate the scion xb until my s.o's mother made me drive when they invited me to dinner and to this day I appreciate them and always look forward to drive there car whenever I get invited for dinner
"Its like grabbing almonds out of a mason jar"
As someone who's had the fortunate pleasure of driving a Yaris I can confirm. The car is genuinely fun as hell to drive.
absolutely seconded. as another fellow yaris owner this car is amazing. also helps that it holds up quite nicely you can buy it 10+ years old and expect it to be good for another few years. such a forgiving car outside of the road
@@paskariu I got a 08 it’s lasted me through very rough winter had hella fun with it and still do I used to backroad it it’s a great drift car my e break broke but if it was fixed it be even better on dirt roads or course lol
@@mckaigaming1827 fit that bitch for hydraulic e brake!
1st gen yaris is hella fun. Other than regular maintenance, oil, filter, coolant, etc. It just runs forever. Just replaced the mounting, lower arm, cheap and it runs likenew. It just won't die..
Remember the first time you drove a car when you were 10 years old? That’s how much fun all these cars are.
The Yaris engine can also last upwards of 45 years if its taken care of
They also make great off-roading cars without any modifications
I have a 2005 yaris and it has 500k km on the clock. Still going strong
@@franmajdak4069 my 2006 has a little over 550km on it, still runs like new
The best part of that show is watching James fiddle with his microphone’s wire xD
Damn the Sky is uncool? My midlife crisis is having a crisis of its own.
I actually saw a VW Cabriolet today on my commute home from work & it made me do a rubberneck for a second. It was just really unique & it stood out amongst the ocean of crossovers & pickup trucks. I didn't even know what it was, but I saw the VW badge. Such a weird coincidence that I saw this video in the same day!
I appreciate seeing a teeny tiny Toyota on this list. The Aygo (the smallest Toyota available in Europe, one notch smaller than the Yaris) is among my favourite cars of all time.
"what do they know, print is dead"
Ouch
8:35 I’m close to getting my license, and I’m probably getting a Prius V, and this made me so happy to see that the V was in a Donut Video
Prius are great cars, people have been living in them for years, there are videos on TH-cam
Careful with those simply because they may end up costing you more $$ to maintain the older they are due to the giant battery replacement cost. The batteries are good for 8 years or 100k miles. If the car is nearing that mileage or age expect to have to drop $3-4K on replacing that battery. The battery alone is about $2.5K & that's without labor.
The bad rep of Priuses (Prii?) came from the early adopters being like "I'm saving the world by driving this", "you shouldn't drive that kind of car, it's killing the environment"
but actually, it isn't that bad if I'm being honest (although the design could use some work, but what do I know?)
Loved my Geo Tracker....just ended up becoming to tall for it 😂😂 head stuck out the roof
Extra visibility.
I feel that, I'm 6'5" and always wanted one.
The honda fit is so fun to drive, it feels like a go cart because of how you sit in it and, it has a sport mode with paddle shifters.
2:29 - “And the sedan version even comes with a six speed *Manuel” GAS GAS GAS* intensifies
When i See a Yaris: "A least it is Not pink" GT3 Players know the meme about the pink vitz
I enjoyed my 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage even though it had 74 HP. The power to weight ratio was actually pretty good.
I’ve had a beautiful low down blue modified coupe and a roaring V5 but the car I will always miss was my 1.6 Skoda Felicia.
It weighed less than a tonne so it was Chuck-able and I could absolutely hoon it everywhere without getting in trouble
I’m so happy to see the Yaris made the list! I had one back in college and I loved driving that little thing around town.
My roommates VW Cabrio is literally the toughest thing on the planet. That was the car I learned stick in!
