Leenis24 · 06-01-2006, 05:49 PM

I'm so frickin' happy right now, i pick up my car tomorrow. 3 Door, 5 Speed, Metorite Metalic color. It sits in the lot as i write this, serviced and ready for me to drive it home. Just wanted to let everyone know that there is going to be another proud owner of a yaris in the US. I'll update again tomorrow when i have it and give my impressions of the car, and probly some pics of it too. Happy Yarising All.

Congrats, that's awesome

Meteorite Metallic was my first choice but I settled on Blazing Blue.

I'm actually still waiting for mine to arrive so I can't tell you how jealous I am!

Be sure to post pics when you get a chance...

Congrats leenis. Yep. your probably going to be suprised at the get up and go of the yaris. I'm having a hard time going as slow as everyone else now. The little guy has so much pep to it.

Kalispell is about 300 miles from bozeman. Its possibly even prettier here. We have a big lake to goof around with as well in this area. Only problem is alot of folks are moving in. The winters are like 7 months long and cold and dreary. I snowboard so its just fun for me. But alot of folks move here and then after a winter move out.

Leenis24 · 06-03-2006, 12:15 PM

Ok i've had my car for about 20 hours now and put roughly 150 miles on it so far. I must say,this car is way more then i expected. I love it so much, the handling is awesome, its so tight in the steering, the clutch is perfect(for me), shifting gears is so easy, the interior is really nice, lots of room, nice storage, good power, nice and peppy, great gas milage, and so fun to drive. The one and only complaint i have about it, is the stereo and speakers suck. Cant wait to put an aftermarket head unit in, and all new speakers. I definatly give this car a 10/10.

Now lets do some mods.

punch · 06-03-2006, 12:43 PM

hehe, congrats on the car, i think my sedan is slow as a snail, but i went from a turbo charged 250hp pt cruiser to an automatic 106hp...

Leenis24 · 06-03-2006, 12:56 PM

hahaha ya. Well i went from a 3 cylinder Geo Metro 55 hp to the yaris. Double the power and the yaris is 300 lbs lighter then the metro.

suzu · 06-05-2006, 02:28 AM

congrats everyone for getting your yaris. I am among the first owners of 3dr manual lb in US. simply loving it. it looks, drives and even smells great :)

Uglyboyed · 06-05-2006, 04:42 PM

swng · 06-05-2006, 07:51 PM

By now I have already had my car for over six months. The new car smell is still there

.
Enjoy your Yaris everybody!

eight_heads · 06-05-2006, 11:42 PM

let's see some pics of the meteorite metallic, all the pics seem to look different.... i can't choose between the meteorite and the black(i ordered meteorite, but it and a black one are coming in at the same time and i can choose!) so help me choose here.

ricko · 06-06-2006, 12:10 AM

You guys do realize that the new car smell is in fact toxic!!!!! Apparently it is composed of several dozen known carcinogens, released from various materials in the interior.

Hey I saw this CNN, they NEVER lie ...... right????

maybe that's why it smells so good

swng · 06-06-2006, 12:45 AM

I believe that there are even canned new car smell for sale. Just spray it into your car and it will attract a higher price in the used car market. Believe it, or not
