i have been look at some toyota yaris t sports in my local area and wondered if it was a good first car or car general?
 
NO- the Honda Fit, or the Hyundai Elantra SE are much better cars. The Honda Fit is a few grand more, but well worth it.
If u get the Hyundai Elantra , make sure it's the SE, the Toyota Corrolla and Honda Civic are better cars also.
 
It is not a mid end or high end sport car but reading the reviews the least you can say it isn't a boring shopping car. Yes if you treat it like a sport car and drive a bit sporty it actually might give you some fun to. And that coming from Toyota! [Toyata makes mostly trustable but rather bland cars. A sport version like this obviously won't win a race but might offer you a little extra]

Small enough and economical enough even though the sporty settings might have removed a bit of the "economical" side. I would say yeah looks decent for a first car. Obviously if you go hiking with friends you might have to hire a bigger car. But for daily usage it will do fine and yes even has a bit of fun in it if you try to get it it. Between 4200 and 6000 rpm is most of the fun. Like many small cars under the 4200 it probably will "lack power"
 
No.

There's nothing wrong with the Yaris T sport but this is the sportiest model and as such the insurance for a young driver will be very high.

You need to be looking at a more basic model with a 1 litre engine.

Unless that is you are either a bit older i.e over 21 or a girl in which case insurance may be more reasonable.
