Hello Buying a Yaris Very Very soon!

[jekqmb]

Ya im buying a yaris 3 door LB 5 speed very very soon maybe this weekend if i can get off work , i own a 2004 Saturn Ion Redline with lots done and i own GatewayEcotec which is a local forum...Alot of CobaltSS/Redline owners know my car on the forums, its had alot done to it and it used to run its balls off, its having problems that i dont care to fix. So im buying a Yaris and i cant wait!!!! Nobody in the st.louis area tunes these things so i cant wait to see the looks on peoples faces when they see me pull up in one and ask where my redline went hehe :biggrin:, i also owned a 98 srt-4 swapped neon R/T that i recently sold awhile back. Man this is going to be a whole new world for me :thumbup:
Pics of my Redline...... 347whp on nitrous/race gas-270whp off nitrous.

Hey guys going tonight to look at 2 yaris and see what they will give me for my Redline!! :thumbup: The problem is should i see if i can order one maybe an S version or just buy 1 off the lot? They have a base manual and a fully loaded 4 door auto :iono:. I want the car for Auto-x so im going to need a manny. But im getting excited :tongue: Im buying a set of 15" Rotas and ordering some springs from Micro Image ASAP if i buy 1 tonight, i found a few back ups if this dealer trys to mess with me. Ill have a Yaris hopefully tonight or at the latest the end of next week :clap:

Woooo hoooo ordered a fully loaded 2009 polar white 3 door LB 5 speed!!!!!!!!! Pick her up next week :thumbup: Now you all can welcome me to Yaris world officially , Im going enjoy my last week with the Redline though, im going to detail her one more time before we part ways, im also going to sell every mod i have on it and swap for stock parts, hehe Got to buy me some Rotas and i think im going to order the Tein Coilovers. Here is a pic of the exact car,they just have to have it delivered, but at least they found the one i wanted!!! Lots to come, Coilovers, Nitrous, Custom Intake Manifold etc... If anyone doesnt know i am very involved in the the Ecotec Community, i plan all the major Missouri meets, own a forum, help with Midwest Meets, i know lots of shop owners and have great connections. I hope to be like that with these car for sure! I am also planning on teaming up with a local shop and designing a few parts for the Yari as well...I was about 10 minutes away from buying an Aveo5 lol, but Toyota gave me a better deal.

Thanks for the welcome, she got in tonight at 6pm! I pick her up at noon this Wedsnday on my day off..... :clap:. Im so excited to start tuning a micro car! :bellyroll:
I actually bought 15x6.5 rota SA racing rims pink center with polished lip and 3k HID's, and a DOMO keychain to hang under the rear bumper hehe .....I believe this sunday im debating on getting Tein coilovers or buying springs since winter is coming in a few months. Ill post pics in a few weeks of the progress.

Really? I honestly think the Yaris is a better car. The Aveo looks stylish, though, I'll give you that.

Welcome! :headbang:

Welcome! :headbang:

Haha I like the Aveo cause i know the Ecotec motors inside and out.... :thumbup: But the Yaris has a way bigger aftermarket and re-sale value. :biggrin:

That's because it's not American made :bellyroll:

Congratulations and welcome! I'm sure we'll all be anticipating your custom parts. We have a couple users on the board who make their own parts and have had great success.
