My brand new 2015 Yaris 1.3 VVTi - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Yah, you get more features in a NON-USA version as Americans aren't willing to pay for them in cheap cars. Anyway, on the plus side, I have heard a lot better comments about engine life expectancy on the 1.5 liter, versus the smaller sizes. However, I like all those extra features. But the 1.5 is proven to be bullet proof.

But it appears you have the side mirror turn signals already, do you not?

But I agree it would have been preferable if this was standard from Toyota.

Correct. I think that all European 3rd gen Yarises come with this feature.

I was replying to Kalispel about the lack of side mirror turn signals on the US spec cars. Wish we had them as standard equipment like the rest of the world, but if any US owners want to add them it is possible. I've done so myself.

Oh got you. I agree with you; Europe, Japan and Thailand/Malaysia seem to have the most car goodies that other countries would not even have available as an option.

First goal accomplished, I had the Suntek window tints mounted yesterday:

Put a rear hatch spoiler on that baby!

Yeah, I'm thinking about that, but it will have to wait for a while. (I am also considering mounting some good-looking exhaust tip

)

I have to go step by step, the car has to drive me around, not ruin me financially :) I also bought two more years of warranty yesterday, so it makes 5 together.
Now I want to look around for some suitable armrest that would replace that coach-like stick.
