Flat black takes away a lot of the ugly in this thing. What a crappy tranny though. Sounds worse (i.e. slower) than the first generation BMW SMG :thumbdown:

I do not like the LF-Lame.

Very uninspired looks - almost as if it is a Viper without the curves.

I dont think the engine/sound can make up for the bland Toyotaness of the car.

How exciting can a V10 Yaris really be? ;)

Funny considering that the current Viper was designed by the man who brought us the early '00's Camry and Corolla.

Then you're not going to believe how Yamaha managed to make a V10 engine sound boring.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

This car borders on being plain and pedantic. At least when Germans go crazy, they do go crazy, not just in their prices.

Interesting, how after all that sound engineering it sounds crappy, and the great harmonious roar of a Ford Mustang V8 "just happens" ;)

I just love the off canter sound of the Mustang.... pity the Vette sounds so "flat" when near stock - you need a gutted exhaust and nasty cam for the GM V8's to sound wicked.

That Yamaznoozy V10 really sounds nothing as inspired as the Bimmer V10 or even the Volksborghini V10.
