The G1 was available in the USA from model year 2001. I see them from time-to-time. They are a standard sedan shape (like an Echo) with trunk. Not as aerodynamic as the new hatchback shape of later years. (Also there are no 2003s for the G2.)

Anyway I guess I'll get the G3 in "sea glass". It sounds like it will give highest MPG at 50-60 mph. :-) I might hold off for G4 though, just to see how if it improves economy. Maybe Toyota has some trick up their sleeve to make the car even more sleek or less fuel guzzling. (And if not then I'll get the G3 clearance price.)
