Sedan Vs LB - Toyota Yaris Forums

Push · 06-28-2007, 12:02 AM

I love my sedan and the LB is ugly imo however. when you do the right things the LB looks soooo sweet. my sedan is sensitive to every thing i doo. If i put big wheels on it. I have to chrome it out and put a system in it. if i put tuner wheels i need to slap stickers everywhere. I stuck on which way i wanna go with it. on a LB you can do whatever you feel.

You're not required by any specific modification to go in any route with your car. If I owned a sedan I'd probably slam it on 18's, replace the front buckets, upgrade to match fabric throughout the interior, through in a stealth system and be done with it. Sedans aren't exactly performance vehicles in my eye. Unless its a subby. Just be tasteful with your choices and make decisions to compliment other mods and you'll be straight.

Sedan is too plain looking. It's like subcompact version of Corolla.
LB, however, induces polarized emotions in people. Very few stay neutral towards liftback.

yeah, the LB is "hate it or love it" to people. i own a sedan...i don't think owning a sedan necessarily means going VIP or hip-hop. look at the sport sedans out. the TSX (Accord Euro-R), STi, Evo, and all those Euro sedans don't take that route. and making it a tuner doesn't mean you have to drown it in decals.

my opinion is, if you like sport, then slap on those tuner wheels, lower it, and make the interior more race-oriented. if it's luxury you like, go with the VIP way.

Lower that puppy and you wil crap your pants. I have an S Sedan and let me tell ya it looks completely different. All I have done visually is lowered it and tinted the windows and all I need now is some rims and I am done.

you my friend have just inspired me. Do you think 15 inch O.Z. canova would do the trick. I like 15 inch for price reasons and simplicity. Check out my thread in the wheel forum

I have an S Sedan and I agree, they do need lowering just a touch. I think they look more like a Camery. I want some descent 15"s on it, a few of the obvious mods to boost hp and mileage and that's about it. Just a few subtle things to set it apart from stock.

BTW- I absolutely LOVE the LBs. The sweeping lines of it's design make it look like it's going 100 standing still yet at the same time the front end says, "Ohayou!". I may have gotten one had I known I'd have the job I have now and if they had the five doors (I have a 100 golden retriever to get in and out of the back seat. plus no back window to roll down, is there?)
