Hey thanks for such a warm welcome! I've actually got all the price particulars in the car atm, but what I can pull from my memory is the following...keep in mind, that for my christmas present for the next five years my moms' credit helped me out..Also it helped that her fiance knew the boss and got us the employee pricing, but from the looks of some of the posts i've read, the deal I got isn't much better than what everyone else is paying.

$1,000.00
6.5% APR
256.78/mo

i'll put the exacts in my next post.

Mods :

I'm going to start out with putting some new bushings on the shifter, as well as a new shifter knob, and different color but same style boot. I'd also like to change the stereo backlight from that nasty puke green. I might take on the task of converting to electric door locks thus turning the alarm into keyless entry as well. going to put a tint strip on the upper windsheild.

I'm sure i'll find more to do to her...but here's the good stuff guys! have some pics!

^^^Very nice pictures! I like the Bayou Blue, was this your first choice in color? I saw one at Rainbow (store where I live) and it was looking really nice. How do you like the color? Congrats!:thumbsup:

[YarisKid]

Well I had first considered the black, but when I saw pictures from other owners with that color, I really didn't like it. I really wanted the bayou blue but my second choice was the darker grey.

It's my second day driving it, I actually took a two hour lesson on how to drive a stick yesterday so it's a little rough on the take off, but getting better.

Grats on your new Yari!

[Driver]

Welcome aboard, and congratulations on the new Yaris. The more you drive it the more you'll love it. I too drive a stick or manual.
