saw this at the NY Auto show three years ago- I like it myself, if the passenger cover was removable to make the second seat functional, and there was some way to cover up as the weather here isn't conducive to an open daily driver


Couldn't find my pics- here's SEMA 2007

Yaris meets Speed Racer!

It would make an awesome second car.

It's cool, but I already get caught in the rain enough in my Jeep Wrangler and would hate the same thing to happen in my Yaris!

As a dedicated track car, maybe; but there's certain issues with driving an open vehicle in today's society that would keep me from wanting to do this with a daily driver.

Still, you gotta applaud the outstanding work they did!

Cheers! M2

That was built to commemorate the '68-'70 Toyota 7 racer.

And yes it's uber-sweet! Even Garm would be jealous

There are certain characteristics I love about this vehicle, and then there are a few I'd take away with an idea for my own. Most of it was under the hood, but off kilter numbers proven wrong based on non truths sent me back to my original thought of, "Meh, it's ok" Not sure I would have chosen the Yaris as the platform.
