The Official Old People's Yaris Thread - Toyota Yaris Forums

I have been thinking about buying one of these as a daily driver just to save gas, I drive about 70 hwy miles a day.

I have had a few hot cars and built a few more in my time (im 34). But when I see people talking about performance and perf mods I find it hilarious and sad at the same time.

Whats the use in modding a car that has 100hp? I mean really all your doing is lowering the resale value of the car.

If your worried about performance you should not even be here as there is no real performance to be had.

Oh yes add a turbo and get up to 30 more ponies and down to a 15 sec 1/4 mile ooohhh -aaahhhh. Its comical and a waste of time and money but all this is just my opinion.

And when they go to get rid of it they will actually get less for their modded car than for one that is bone stock.
