Thumbs up Farewell Yaris World

Well, I have to say goodbye. Today, I traded in my Yaris for a 2011 Scion tC. I'll miss my Yaris dearly and I hope it goes to a good home. It was a great run both with the car and on this forum. I've learned more about cars from this forum than I ever did growing up. And for that, I thank every one of you who has ever provided even the smallest piece of useful information. This is a great community and I wish everyone the best. I'm sure I'll still be flicking through here once and a while. All the best!

-Nick

Sorry! Check it!

Well, I went all out with it...
Leather interior
Heated seats
fog lights
TRD exhaust
TRD strut bar
All weather mats
Wheel locks
Upgraded stereo came with the leather package.... (wasn't supposed to but I got it anyway )


I replaced the antenna with a stubby one before I left the lot :P Got it from the Acura dealer for $17.

HIDs for low beams and fog lights are on their way from Montreal; should be here by Friday.

Total cost around $31,000.

Yeah I think I'll be sticking around. A lot of great info on here that will still be relevant.

And I'm still checking out this forum.

Nice car. For myself I would rather have 2 Yaris's for that price.

I think I'd rather have my Yaris, and put the extra money into mods... Bigger, heavier sedans are just not my bag.

I'm still around too, although it's only been a few months. Still find myself looking at Yaris pictures and wanting to buy another one
