Yes a Toyota Echo, apparently. Not used to seen ones that look like this. Actually Never seen one of these before, outside of Gran Turismo that is. Guy wants $6,300 for it. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Yuck ... not at that price, not for me. I once destroyed/totaled one of these ... got more money out of it than it had originally cost me.

I still like the first-gen, facelifted T-Sport.

It's just what the Canadians call a Yaris, eh. CP.

Maybe they sold them for a little while here as Echos, but I think that's the Toyota Aygo from Europe. It definitely is, actually. Which is interesting, because unless they sold them here, that guy is pulling the old "register an imported car as something else" trick. And what a car to do it with - because it's so ubiquitous, no one would bat an eye.

EDIT: m2m confirmed they sell them here. Fair enough. But still, what a plan...

I do see these, frequently. They're the first generation Yaris in Europe. I helped with putting some early Christmas presents in the tiny trunk of one just yesterday; my 88 year old grandfather drives one just like it. It's a perfect car for someone his generation.

The Echo would be what we had as the Yaris in Europe me thinks.. The Aygo is an awesome piece of kit :)

It gets better mileage than a Prius. With hypermileing techniques my dad gets 52 mpg out of his.

There are a lot of these in Canada.

Toyota sold the Echo hatch in Canada. Here 's a road test.

The CL post says "made in Canada."

Methinks someone imported this car from Canada.
