Generally, it is the best solution cause there is a lot of cold air in front of the car.

right. thats why i said that when you said subbies have it as a TMIC. Despite the air scoop on the wrx/impreza, the guys who are trying to eek out more HP, end up going with a FMIC.

What I mean is, look at the hood that ChinoCharles mentioned, the holes basically face toward the back of the car, designed for air coming out. Subaru (for example, other cars have intercooler scoops too!), have the holes facing forward, so that when you drive, the incoming cool air is forced into the engine bay.

I talked few salesperson at my dealership about yaris ts version.
some of them didn't even know what i was talking about.. sigh..
one salesman had pic cut off from newpaper and showed me.
the newpaper (The province Oct.06) was saying Yaris TS will be coming out early 2007 in North America.
so i asked our sales manager and he told me Yaris TS might be selling in US but not in Canada..
sad story for Canadians... hope he is wrong..

I would take what he said with a grain of salt. For me it seems odd that IF Toyota sold the TS here it would be in Canada as well...small cars are more popular there and besides I believe the Canada was the first debut of this current gen Yaris. Maybe Toyota doesn't want to cancel out the RS model in Canada, but who knows! Its speculation. I have my doubts about N/A, at least in the near future...We'll see!

Well said.

However there is also gonna be a bump at the price, as it will cost at about 20.00euros...

You always have to top everyone don't you?

Just kid
Thanks for the info!

Mark my words, if this car DOES come to the U.S., I'll sell my xB for it.

The photos look sweet, IMO. :)

The Automobile Journalists Association of Canada did their own independent 0 - 100 km/h acceleration tests of the new Yaris with the 1.5 1NZ-FE, and it was 9.4 seconds...

Cheers

Εxactly.I have measured mine with the 1.3lt engine and it takes 10.3secs for 0-100km/h.

So, I think that there is something wrong with TS's accelleration.

ECHOKnight2000 · 09-29-2006, 09:00 PM

I read on another thread that the reason the 0-60 is that high is because the gearing...but I don't know if that's true, just food for thought.
