Just bought a Yaris!
Hello All,
I had the Toyota Sienna 2011 for the past year and decided to buy Toyota Yaris 2010 with 6500 miles on it. The deal was so good I just couldn't pass it ($5000). Now I am trying to figure out what do I need to replace in terms of filters and so fourth to have the time of my life in this small car? Any suggestions to what I should replace/upgrade to have a good quality experience in this car? Thank you |

stick with OEM. That will keep you running for a long time.
6500miles in 4 years, that's just about 1625miles per year in average. wow! what a waste from the previous owner! |

I agree, what a waste. The depreciation cost per mile that the previous owner (likely the original owner) ended up suffering = incredible. The OP got a great deal. Congrats !

Even if he accidentally left off a 0, it would still be a great deal.

First thing everyone buys is a rear sway bar, supposedly it really improves the handling. I just went with coilovers, so I don't know the difference.

rear sway bar and even if they are mild drop springs. thse two items make a tremendous difference in the handling and enjoyment of the car even in a stock performance configuration.
