I don't think the Paseo's are too bad... I've driven one and they go quite well... Interior is okay but rear headroom is shoddy and so is the space in the back... The Paseo was made for two ppl...

I test drove a few of these cars(for a female friend).....they are a very well built solid little machine....Great for A to B transport.They are by no means a quick car but VERY good on fuel!!!.....As Rolla Boy said,they are realy only made for 2 people...... the rear is realy cramped and only useful for small children.

I owned one for 4 years and i was quite happy with it. The handling of the car is quite good. The right hand bend coming off Tom ugly's bridge at 160Kph isnt a problem and it can do it without the car even thinking about letting go. This is also using standard suspension, wheels but all 3 lanes. (this just gives u an indication of what the car is capable of, so i'm not saying i actually did this, all ofmy testing is done on the track)
They arent a very quick car, but for what they are they do get up and boogie.

LOL... Not quite, with how light the paseo was, it could very easily and quickly get up there and to the speed cut

my roommate has a paseo. she loves the car to death... i guess its more suited to females as the car is pretty small. it sure does get you from A to B but dont sit in the backseat if you're a big boy. neck cramps will own you. badly.

It's a shame Toyota never made the paseo rear wheel drive, it would have really become a neat little car...
