Firstly, I suggest http://tinyurl.com if you want to share long URLs. :-)
Anyway, I've already seen quite a few Yaris' in Canada. I think it will
sell well here like the Echo did.

Actually, the Yaris pre-ceded the Echo. I wish we'd gotten the Yaris in the
first place, since it's a hatch, but I still love my Echo
:-)

If it preceeded the echo, was it the basis for one of the scion
models?

Marketing folks, marketing. Yaris (Europe), Vitz (Japan), Echo
(Colonies such as the USA, Canada and Australia). Essentially the same
car. However, only the sedan version was available at first in the
Colonies. Then all the Colonies, except the USA, got the hatchback
Echo, simply because the USA already had the similar Scion hatchback
model.
Starting in Spring 2006, all countries will have either the Yaris or
the Vitz. So the Yanks will have TWO (2) hatchback models to choose
from (Scion and Yaris).
A sedan version is in the works and will replace the Echo sedan. It
will have a different name, just like the one in Japan does. Although
the name will be different.
To add to the confusion, the cars are actually different, depending on
what country they are sold in. Canada's have larger bumpers and always
on hedlights, for example.
So much for an automobile version of Coke (aka Coca Cola).
