Didn't read the whole thread, skimmed a few of the posts. But to the OP, there's also guys like me who mod their cars and don't share anything on here. I do agree with you that some of the mods I see people do look a bit tacky in my books but to each his own. I have to agree with some of the other replies on here though. The one I agree with the most being that the Yaris is a car that's been targeted at fuel economy. That being said, its not going to get a lot of attention as a modding platform.

Although, I bought mine with every intention of racing it. I've since changed directions with the car as a result of the current economy; litely moded engine with some basic suspension and aesthetic mods. I'll leave the "go fast" mentality for my MR2. At the end of the day...nothing beats the feeling of driving my Yaris back home in comfort (not to mention how badass 40MPG is) after a night of racing the MR2 (20MPG or less?). As a bonus, I can still throw my Yaris around some corners when the urge hits me :)
