Nice find! Car looks like new.

That is a very sweet car ... and a great find.

My Yaris is my baby .. and I am sure that you will feel the same about your new car.

Interesting that you say that, because I love the car already. My girlfriend has a 2008 Auris but I wouldn't swap my Yaris for it. My girlfriend even admitted that she prefers my Yaris!

Considering it's only got a 1 litre engine, it certainly can move. Overall, I'm thrilled with my purchase.

is that sought after in the states? I would have thought you'd be happier with the bigger engine.

Not really. Only people who drive to get as high a MPG as possible would want to try one out and we are distinctly in a minority.

I used to have a diesel back in the day when diesel fuel was 20% less than petrol. Those days are long gone. Now diesel is nearly 40% more than gas. ($2.90 VS $2.09) It thus makes no sense whatever to own a diesel car nowadays, economic sense I mean. You have to shoot for as small a gas engine as possible and those are rare in the States.

Is that $2.09 for a gallon? if so, that's really cheap because a gallon of unleaded is $5.26 in Ireland!

how does 35 cents a gallon sound? My neighbor was stationed in Iraq a few years back and he said that is what gas was selling for.

213,000+ miles on mine and still running strong. Only one issue ever: the electronic 'brain' went 500 miles shy of the warranty....been fine since. Only maintenance and it's about to get the TRD treatment: Full TRD suspension, clutch, and quick shifter....I'm gonna have fun 'til this thing dies.
