Looking to get a subcompact

b06

I've been checkin on few models:
2008 Nissan Versa SL
2008 Toyota Yaris RS
2008 Mazda 3 Sport GS

Some of my preferences, on top of my head, in getting any of the above models are:
fuel efficient
able to negotiate price
lower maintenance cost
comfortable to drive

Any recommendation is welcome.  Thanks.

Here is how I would rate them, based on your selection criteria. 100 points means best among the 3. Other marks are relative to the top scorer.

fuel efficiency
100 -- Yaris
90 -- Versa
60 -- Mazda3 S ...

Thanks for the heads up.  Let me know how you rate them will be nice too.

how about Honda Fit & Suzuki SX4

Sure, let me know your thoughts about the Fit and SX4(maybe Swift+) and how it compare to any of the ones I listed.

Thanks,

I guess my list of subcompact category is creating much "disturbance".  My bad.

Alright, so I've read your comments and looks like I'm going to have these two as my final choices:

Versa SL
Yaris RS

The Yaris, of cos, is notorious for good mileage usage and maintenance cost.  Versa on the other hand has a much more elegant interior and a slightly more powerful engine.

It looks like the price will be the final factor for me to decide between these two.  I heard that Toyota WILL NOT allow any room for bargaining (heard that from a friend of mine who is also owner of Toyota). We'll see...
