the first night I got the car, as soon as I left the dealership, I went straight to work. and I held the car @ 119mph and kept hitting the speed limiter, but I just kept my foot on the gas. I ran the car @ 119mph for over 2mins of I-75 Alligator Alley. I said to myself, if anything has to break, it's better if it breaks now than later. that night I put over 600 miles on the car within 12hrs. after that night, I had complete faith in my Yaris, and I still do and always will.

Wow, you seem to really push your Yaris to the limit! And STILL managed to reach over 300K with no problems! Proof that the Yaris is bulletproof.

And they say to go through a break-in period - no high speeds, no immediate long trips, no high revving, ect. for the first few thousand miles or so and you broke all those rules the first night and it had no adverse effects on longevity. Amazing.

I baby mine. I never rev beyond 3500. Never really go more than 80 mph.

And you're red-lining it with 304,000 miles!

Wonder how long mine will last!
