Hey Everyone,

I just purchased my 2015 Yaris about 2 weeks ago. Kind of an impulse buy in a sense that we weren't planning on purchasing a car till the end of this month. The dealer gave me a killer deal on it since it's a high mileage car with 40k on the odo. Of course I had to pull their ear to budge on the price, but ended up taking it home!

The main purpose of her purchase is for baby duties! My wife and I are expecting our first child early April and I needed a car that would fit a car seat and wouldn't break the bank.

Mod plans for the Yaris...not so much. I definitely want to upgrade lighting and so far I have changed interior and license plate lighting to LEDs. I'm so used to HIDs, so looking at options for upgrades :headbang:

So far definitely satisfied with her. I'll post some pictures as soon as she's clean. It's been raining once a week here in Sunny SoCal, so she's a mess!

Hey, congrats on the new Yaris and an even bigger congrats on the upcoming new addition to your family.

Looking forward to those pics. Good to see another SoCal Yaris on the forum. I'd say join a few of us at Toyotafest in early May, but with a month old baby, probably not in the cards this year, eh? lol.

Thank you, I appreciate that! I actually saw the thread on here about ToyotaFest. Being a car enthusiast myself, I was seriously considering of going. You are correct, definitely not in the cards. Especially since we are new to this "Parenting" thing :laugh:

What was the price he offered and what did he end up selling it to you at?
