I did test drive a four-door S model but the Liftacks are impossible to find in my area (NE).

Anyway, it should be here 1st or 2nd week in June and I can't wait to take it for a spin and start modding (wheels, tach, etc.)

I bought my yaris liftback sight unseen as well. Didn't even test drive it. I just went on what folks had written about it for years. That its a good little car. Its not a good little car. Its a great little car. It is really nice to invest in something and have it be even better than I could have thought.

It really helped to be able to read info. from people in canada and australia and all over the world what a good car it is.

Hello, I'm picking up my 5dr Silver RS w/ lowering springs + Borla performance exhaust this Tuesday. It's the first car I have ever baught and im pretty excited. I went from a 91 Infiniti Q45 to the Yaris which is quite a jump but I need fuel ifficiency and the looks, and Toyotas quality reeled me in. Well thats all for now I will show everyone the car on Tues or Wed in the pics section. Later

Hello, checking in from Central Florida, bought a black sedan non S model last week and am very happy with it. Plenty of room and excellent gas mileage with toyota reliability.

Welcome all other new yaris owners! I will be joining you in... umm ... soon i hope. I have put my deposit on a yaris and specified a black LB with package B (toyota.com) but im hoping i can get something close to that... in a month or so, whenever NM gets there allocation. I look forward to talking to other yaris owners.

Just got my Flint Mica "S" auto on Tuesday. Love it so far. Test drove one last Monday and they were able to dealer exchange one for this week. Love the look, pickup power is okay, and stock stereo is much better than expected (for an economy car). The center mount locations for MPH, etc. is okay and not a problem to adjust for.

Just put Scotchguard on the seats and floors. Thinking about adding the OBX pedas and door sills later.

I have had my blazing blue LB for about a week now and I absolutely love it. Surprisingly roomy, great gas mileage, and just a joy to drive. I bought my yaris as a commuter car, I drive 60 miles roundtrip to work everyday. I also have a nissan xterra but that was costing me about $100 in gas a week once prices hit $3/gal. After two weeks of that my wife and I decided that I needed something a little easier on gas (and the wallet). I was originally looking at used echo's but then I happened upon toyota's website and there was the yaris.
Once I saw the LB, I was hooked. I bought it sight unseen, no test drive and I did'nt even know what color it would be! Needless to say this is a great car and is all kinds of zippy fun on the road.

Just curious. How much do you spend (save) on gas now?

[rob.]

It's looking like the yaris will cost about $30 a week in gas. (10 gal. at $3/gal.) So probably around $120 a month if I fill up once a week.

Hello everyone,
I got my Red 2 door liftback / 5 speed manual a week ago, wow what a cool car, I am not some kid with a new toy , I have driven alot of cars over the years , I had 8 VW beatles from a 1960 to a 1973 and many other cars. I now have a 2002 VW jetta Wagon, 1991 Olds wagan, 1993 Subaru , and a 1991 miata. I looked around alot for a car that was like my old beatles and I found it here. This Yaris is as close as it gets , it's basic , clean looking , simple and fun to drive.

It's nice to know people still like the basics.

Hello everyone. I have owned an 83 Tercal, a 98 and 02 Camry, an 04 Prius and now an 06 Yaris hatch and this is by far the most fun to drive car of them all.

Hi all! I just got a 2007 Yaris Sedan Manual on 05.18.06 I have no pictures yet, so that's why my avatar shows my other car. The Yaris is Olive Mist Metallic, I call it light green. I'll try to get some pics in the next few days.

[why?]

Ah, that is your other car. lol, nice.

[TC-LIFTBACK]

Ordered a Blazin' Blue Liftback Manual up in Minneapolis last Wednesday.

Test drove the sedan and really liked how it drove.
