Ebony and Ivory

Had a quick photoshoot with @rohvitz yesterday afternoon. These were my favorite of the bunch...

Great looking cars! The black license plate looks really awesome. I wonder how many people you drive by understand the meaning of the custom plate number. :)

Ha, thanks. If I had to guess, not many. Everyone asks me what it means. There was only one guy I ran into at an AutoZone that said he liked it and didn't ask what the meaning was behind it.

...live together in perfect harmony.

I like the juxtaposition of these two Yari. Not just the opposite colors, but also the 2nd gen vs. 3rd gen, the 2 door vs. 4 door. Makes a nice comparison.

Very nice photoshoot! Would have been cool to have a red (big mouth) '15-'16 model as well.

Nice. I like the black license plate! Probably brings a chuckle to any Toyota aficionados who see it.

Thanks; I totally agree. So to put you on the spot a little, which do you prefer? Third-gen, right?

That would have been great.

Where are all my SoCal big mouth owners?! Let's make it happen!

Thank you; I think the same! I have to believe that anyone that knows what a 2JZ is will instantly laugh when they see my little go-kart and the 1NZ plate lol.

It's amazing at how much more real estate that hood takes up compared to the '07.

Yeah 3rd gen but only the 2012-2014 version, after that I don't like the look. The 2nd gen hatch ranks above the 2015+ 3rd gen IMHO.

Don't take that as a diss to your car, which is smokin' BTW.

No diss at all, and thanks!

We've talked about it before and I agree, in my opinion the 2012-2014's have the most aggressive and interesting front end of all the third gen's.

Hey. You got 0.5L of displacement and a cylinder on my shitbox.

Anyone fancy trying to stick a 2JZ in a Yaris? Beats a VR6 Golf i bet!
