I would have bought a manual Yaris when I bought mine, had they had any in decent colors, but I'm increasingly glad I didn't given how many people on Yaris forums complain about the gear box on them. The powerband of that little 1.5L is stretched pretty thin over 4 ratios (not that it's going be much of a puller no matter what) but little that I've heard makes me feel like I'm missing out on an expecially engaging drive because of my auto. Besides, you can still force a downshift for passing or the twisties in the auto.
