Right after I started taking these pics one of the attendants came up and asked me if I was going to move my car or if I'm gonna keep it like this (parked slanted)

[tomato]

Awww, nice!! Superclean Yaris :) And the stickers rock!

Yoshi's off to a good start! :thumbsup:


You got a ride in Garm's car?!!!! :drool:

[Kioshi]

last pic w/ the fog is so........nice!
Wish we could have done photoshoots there during our meet :P

what beach is this?

[bkndacn]

@ Tomato : Thank you! Yeah he was clean till the end of the shoot.... all the sand and dust just covered Yoshi .... it made me sad because I just had him washed 20 min before i took the pics ... I've noticed that he just doesnt stay clean around here because of the nightly mist and daily dust...:cry:

Yeppers got a very quick ride when I drove down to L.A. by quick I mean it was fast!!!!! lol

@ Kioshi: Yeah the fog was super weird one minute it was sunny and nice and then the fog rolled ...errr...ran in at like 50 mph! after like 5 pics you could barely see Yoshi anymore!

its actually near Asilomar in Pacific Grove ... There are a lot of turnoffs/parking spots that are on the way there .... soo it was a series of places.

[whiteyaris]

are those yellow lights on the side of the headlight lit up?

[bkndacn]

No I dont think so i think that was either the flash or a reflection ....

[JetfireK]

I had the Day off and thought that it would be a great day for a photo shoot! and off to the beach I went!

Beautiful photos of your car and beautiful photos of beach in the background. Is that a Bayou Blue color that you have? Can you tell me what kind of wax that you use?
Someone recommended that I use Maguires Next Generation and mine looks 75% better but I know there is something out there that can deepen the color and make it look much better?
Also where did you get the Yaris World.Com stickers? Your ride is really awesome...will appreciate a reply....Thanks in advance, Judy

[bkndacn]

Shamefully I can admit that I have not waxed my car in a few months but I believe it was Meguires when I did wax it ... :redface:

I know the beach is awesome I love the fact that I live less than 5 min away from it!

The Yaris world decals I got from a local print store and they grossly overcharged me :mad: but I wanted them for my first meet .... the logo is available for download if you do a quick search on here .... the MI decal that I got Garm gave to me when I went to visit him in L.A. :bow::bow::bow:

BTW yes it is a Bayou Blue Yaris and thank you for all your nice comments :biggrin:

[bkndacn]

Me and a friend went to Big Sur yesterday and I managed to take a few photos of Yoshi before my camera died ... unfortunately the camera died before Yoshi started his mountain climbing on the crazy back road with like 16-25% grades (Im guessing because there weren't any signs!) and crevasses the size of my car that I needed to avoid! not to mention the road didn't have a gaurd-rail and there was a HUGE cliff just right there :eek: ... my friend started laughing because the scenery was so nice and I had my back to it and was taking pictures of my car! :rolleyes:

http://i856.photobucket.com/albums/ab130/bkndacn/DSCN0446.jpg
Heres the same picture taken one step to the left! CAN YOU FIND IT NOW?
http://i856.photobucket.com/albums/ab130/bkndacn/DSCN0447.jpg
3 steps to the left.... I shure hope you can see him now!
http://i856.photobucket.com/albums/ab130/bkndacn/DSCN0448.jpg

Yoshi In all his dirtyness....

[kiteslinger]

hehehe! old coast rd. close to the river house owned by Mr. Hill

did you make it all the way to the other side? if you did then frickin big thumbs up on the yaris.... .
BTW.
I work throughout Big Sur and back country plus the coast line

[bkndacn]

yep it was old coast re and me and Yoshi did make it all the way! :-D hell yeah Yaris off roading!! there where spots that would have been harder for alot of other cars, even big off roading cars, to pass because there was only like a Yaris width of road to pass on! i had a blast tho! this is one of the reasons why I'm glad I didnt lower Yoshi!

[Kioshi]

nice pics of going on the rough trail.

you should def. submit some of them to Garm for the 2011 Micro Image calendar!

[bkndacn]

:Blushes: NOOO I am not worthy of an MI calender ..... but thank you!

garm(cali_yaris) sells the yarisworld stickers... he also has the micro image ones too... the echo i used to have, had a set of yarisworld stickers on it, that i got from garm...

[swidd]

I received two such m.i. stickers with my last order... if I put them on my Yaris, will I become a "ricer", driving a "ricing car"?

[BLAZINBLUEVITZ]

in some people's eyes YES...


ALSO yoshi just pm'd me and said you need to lower that thing....

[hedowich]
