Hi, I'm new

[Swissy_82]

Hello everyone.

As you all can tell, i'm the newbe.

i love small car's, so I went and test drove a yaris for fun the other weekend, and just fell in love :wub: with the yaris. What i want to know is, what other people have to say about that car.

I am planing on getting one someday, when i got enough money aside.

I got a lot of questions, like: is there proformence parts fot it, or body kits, etc.....

I'm hopping to also meet some people through this forums.

Fortunately, with the Scion xA and later this year the Yaris being sold in the US, I think the aftermarket will be quick to jump all over this one. The xA already has things like intakes from a number of companies, aftermarket exhaust and super/turbo chargers available. With the same engine being in the Yaris, it won't take long for them to adapt these for the new platform. I'm very optimistic about the aftermarket parts myself. I'm currently checking with Magnaflow to see if the exhaust they have will fit the Yaris. They have one for the xA, so I'm hoping that it'll fit, but I have the advantage of working at an aftermarket exhaust company, so I can have one fabricated if I really want one. I'm just waiting until I buy the lowering springs first.

As for the love of the car, there are a lot of people who agree with you that have the cars on here, me being one of them. I was a little worried when I started looking for an inexpensive car to drive back and forth to work in, but this car has put all that to rest. It's not a power house, but it's quick and very fun to drive. If you know how to drive a standard, that's the best way to have the fun factor, plus it's a little cheaper. Just my two cents though.

Right On jcove. Let me know if you find out anything about the exhaust or springs, as I have been looking also. I don't feel like dropping the amount of cash that Toyota wants for the springs.

Thanx for the info. I feel a stupid. I'm turning 24 and I still got my "N". But i'm thinking of taking driving leasons for standards. Like you said, standard is a little cheaper.

[why?]

The only way to learn is to do it. I didn't learn to drive a standard until I bought one.

Hey, you have more posts than over 100 members.

Hey Swissy 82...I agree with why? about the standard thing...I tried learning on a standard when I was 15 with my dad and it pretty much left me with traumatic baggage and I ended up in a friends automatic for my test and never drove stick again...but when I ordered this car I thought, whatever, I want a stick because it'll be so much fun. A friend of mine drives an ION (stick) so I went out with her one day (freaked out and feeling 15 again but I just got in and drove it! It was so simple! I felt dumb for having feared it like that! LOL. As long as you know the fundamentals of driving then a stick is easee-greasee! Good luck

[why?]

LOL.

It takes a bit to get use to it, but it is so worth it.

Realize that every car is different, so people who know how to drive a stick need to re-learn every car they get in.
