Petition to open the JDM TRD Vitz catalog to United States market Yaris customers

We, the undersigned Toyota Yaris owners and fans, urge the companies Toyota and its in-house tuning subsidiary TRD USA to make available performance items available in the Japanese Domestic Market to your United States customers through its United States distribution channels.

In the Japanese domestic market, there are more robust performance part options than available in the United States market, such as TRD turbo kits, body kits and other aerodynamic improvements, as well as many other components that are designed from the start to function properly with our vehicles without unwanted side effects due to adapting components designed for other applications or by third party vendors. We would like to see a wide range of TRD developed parts made available to us so that we can realize the true potential of this platform without compromising the legendary Toyota reliability we have come to appreciate.

The market for performance import vehicles has been proven with such vehicles such as the Subaru WRX and Mitsubishi EVO series, not to mention the high demand for Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) parts to transform vehicles that are mundane in our market into the JDM equivalent, which often taps the hidden potential of the platform to make an exiting car. We would like Toyota and TRD USA to offer its customers in the United States the chance to act on this demand by tapping into the same feverish market that exists for other entry level car owners, such as exists with the Honda Civic. In this example, it has been proven that people will buy entry level vehicles in the interest of upgrading as they can afford them, often times moving to higher models as their budget increases, creating a strong and lasting brand loyalty as well as happy customers with exiting vehicles that will become brand advocates through automotive communities, car shows, and so on.

Please consider our request. Your customers and fans,
