Yaris Hilton · 06-09-2010, 12:37 AM

I cussed at a highly modded silver liftback one with personalized plates and bumper stickers that passed me and went recklessly weaving through traffic to get a few cars ahead last summer. Maybe someone on the board. Drove like a jerk, very dangerously.

No ur not wierd I do it to

eTiMaGo · 06-09-2010, 03:20 AM

I often cruise with the windows down and my arm on the edge, if i see a nicely modded one coming up I might give them a thumbs up and a smile :)

STC · 06-09-2010, 09:40 AM

I would give a friendly wave. Since I purchased my new Yaris, I've been looking very hard for any LB Yarii out there!

Not many in my town... Only a few when the students come to Penn State University from other NE areas! My friend Alex is a PSU student from Philly area, who actually was an influence for me in buying a Yaris...

Mostly what I see are those damn 'Honda Fit' driving around... Ughhh

bronsin · 06-09-2010, 10:04 AM

I always wave. Especially if its a babe! Which there are a lot of driving the Yaris. I also ride a motorcycle. I head bang those.

Zaphod · 06-09-2010, 11:28 AM

Yarii are so relatively rare here, I generally wave to other LBs when I see one.

Most of the Yaris drivers in my vicinity are middle aged women with stiff necks.
They never look around. Just stare straight ahead as if in a trance.

I only see 0-1 hatchback during my commute in Philly city.....Prius and Fit are everywhere!

Nope, that's not him! This Alex is as 'Casper' as can be... hehe!

He drives a 2009 5-door meteorite metallic Yaris...

fluke_boy · 06-10-2010, 03:57 AM

I've only seen 3 other Yariises in my town. One was a maroon with some kind of business sticker on the door, one was red and the other maybe Meteorite Metallic. All were LBs. I haven't noticed any sedans though. The LBs just stand out so.

And I just stare at them.

Bella · 06-10-2010, 04:12 AM

I've come to call that the 'Yaris moment' .. When I see someone with another Caribbean Blue Yaris, I usually smile and give them a wave.. But that's because I usually catch them looking at my car (even though it's pretty much stock).

Used to happen more back when I first bought her in 2006, when I was one of the first with a privately owned Yaris .. But not so much anymore!!

It's very rare for me to catch the attention of other Yari drivers, as much as I'd like to... Most of the time, I see the same people as MUSKOKA, middle aged women, who don't look around. Of course if I see a Yaris on the highway, I try to get in front of them or some other maneuver to try to get their attention. I really want to find a modded one and play in traffic a bit..

Prohibit · 06-13-2010, 08:57 PM

Fist pump baby!

bkndacn · 06-21-2010, 01:03 PM

So I just put Yarisworld license plate covers that I made myself ..... so if you see someone rockin the YW name then gimme a happy double-honk! :-D

ChilliwackGuy · 06-21-2010, 01:23 PM

I always try to wave - if it's safe. Sometimes I ask a fellow Yaris driver - in a parking lot - how their driving experience has been thus far - and so far - I've noticed that people love sharing feedback!

Hey, you guys are talking about ME!

But I don't drive around with a stiff neck in a trance, and most people don't think I look middle aged! So far, I've only seen one other LB in my city of 700,000, and we did the wave at each other!
