WOOHOO!!! Its on its way! - Toyota Yaris Forums

fat45s · 08-31-2006, 06:35 AM

Im new to the forums and must i say - ive found it very informative.
all the lil, stupid questions that i had, ive found answers to.

Anyways, just like to say - MY YARIS SEDAN IS ON ITS WAY!!

Im from sydney and seein the petrol prices on the rise really made me think twice about my present car. Yeah a nissan skyline has the looks and the performance any car enthusiast would love. BUT the fuel consumption really kills it for me. as a 21 year old, its a real killer when your tryin to save for future investments. eg a house.
So, with that in mind i set out to find a new, low fuel eating automobile.
I walked into one of the toyota dealers and fell in love with the look of the yaris sedan. yeah its smaller. yeah it doesnt have the performance that the skyline had. but damn does it look good on the outside and inside.

well, long story short. everything has FINALLY been approved and my new YARIS will be arriving in about 24 days.

YAY!!!

That's cool, esp in black. Haven't seen too much sedans here in Adelaide, probably 2 since its launch, but have seen numerous hatches on the road already.

ChinoCharles · 09-04-2006, 12:41 AM

Sorry you had to give up your Skyline. Bummer.

fat45s · 09-04-2006, 06:22 AM

as400g33k - yeah i havent seen alot of sedans either. but i really love the look of the sedan. esp in black. i love the look at the black ones.

ChinoCharles - yeah i know. ill miss her. though my partner wont. its too low, too bouncy and too loud - she says. hehe

plates were FAT45S. love that car to bits and i mean to bits.
drove 12 hours to get my front bumper in queensland and 30mins after i got her back, i cracked the bumper straight off. coz it was too low.

plus i got reversed into. note the red tape holding my plates to the car.

but anyways. that was my first car. my next car is the toyota Yaris.
and i love her as much as i loved my skyline. so it gets the special treatment from me and my girlfriend.

ChinoCharles · 09-25-2006, 10:05 AM

UGH! HOTNESS!

Even hooptie Skylines are awesome.
