Echo Review

Today my poor little Echo is at the dealership, having the entire interior carpet removed. The floorpan was recalled for a propensity to rust in severe climates. Sadly, I live in one of those.

Here's what Automobile Magazine has to say about the Echo:

"For that money you get one of the most goofy-looking cars on the planet, both inside and
out, albeit one that gets nearly 40 mpg. The funny-looking "face" on the passenger-side dash--formed by two round vents and the glovebox--both amused and frightened, while the contrasting shapes found throughout the interior just seemed disjointed rather than avant-garde."

"The Echo can tout bulletproof Toyota reliability and resale value but it looks weird."
