Here's my '06 Yaris.

Bought it last February.
Since then I got it tinted, got a crazy deal on the rims, installed a screen (navigation,bluetooth,DVD,iPod)

And recently with some help from TheBarber, got my Megan springs installed
(who am I kidding, he did everything!)
Thanks again

that is beautiful....

I wanted a 4 door so bad but opted for the 2 since the tsunami put new ones on hold for a while.

Looking very good.. I would also install the rear spoiler (big one)

How do you like your new springs? Did the car got stiffer? Any handing improvement?

Thanks

All I cold think as you left after the spring install was DAMN that car looks good

Rims are 17x7.5 with 205-40-17 tires, iirc

well I was actually going to order one (despite the 4 month wait) and the friday before I was going to put the deposite down, the tsunami hit and the toyota dealership stopped returning my emails. that was very strange. I just sucked it up and bought a used one.

I could have gotten a 4 door but it would have been an auto trans. decided that the stick shift was more important than the extra two doors.

this was a year and change ago as well.

Thanks for the comments. I really need to get better pictures because those 2 really aren't doing it justice.

I took the roof rack off and shined up the car and rims real nice. As for the ride, I couldn't be happier. It's not stiff at all, it's great! and as for the handling, I drive like an old man and I never push the car hard. I have had some opportunities to throw it around corners in the back roads where I live though, and there is a huge difference.

I'll update this thread with more pics when I get around to taking more
Thanks!

I decided to snap a few more pics over the long weekend. We went up north for the long weekend and had a great time. I got a ton of comments on the car too which of course feels great!

Nice, but it needs a wing!

And such low profile tires would be painful around here, too many potholes and other bumps in the road to make that doable!

Cheers! M2
