1) 1.0L engine option
2) 60/40 split rear seat for all LBs
3) Make the center armrest standard
4) "All Weather" package should include mud guards

I forgot about that. Tach would be great!!

All of the above, plus:

-moving the gearbox about 2 inches closer to the driver. My arm gets a little tired after about an hour of driving sometimes
-A higher center console with shorter shifter would help too
-Either scrapping the backseat altogether, or stretching the length of the entire car by a few inches to make more space (much like the 90's Civic Si)
-Lowering by an inch
-In-dash nav system
-ULEV sticker so I can go solo in carpool lanes
-Small LED in the glove compartments and "ceiling" of each center cubby, so I can find things quicker in the dark
-Chop the roof a couple inches so it can stop looking like one of those JDM micro-vans from the 60's

Other than that, it's perfect

Also want it to come standard with cruise control, twin turbo, esc, abs, satnav, twin mounted guns on the roof and a outside public address system.

lets see...

I. More engine options:

a. 1.0L Dual VVT-i super gas sipper
b. 1.5L Dual VVT-i standard
c. 1.8L Dual VVT-i sport option with dual exaust
d. factory turbo options

II. A tach! Standard on all manual trans and sport/turbo versions.

III.The little convenience things like:

a. a hatch release near the gas latch
b. a way to lock the hatch from the inside without the keys
c. lights inside the glove boxes (suddenly gave me an idea for a mod....)
d. 60/40 rear seat standard

IV. Sunroof option

lower the car an inch or two and lower front seats. I feel like I'm in a suv.

Yaris Hilton · 04-15-2009, 07:22 AM

I've got the tach and cruise control, which are great!

I'd like temp gauges, engine and outside temp.

I'd like an option for unlocking the trunk with the keyless entry. Got spoiled with that on other vehicles.

I could use a little more knee room under the wheel for climbing in and out. (I raise it all the way up.)

I'd like the driver's side glovebox on the sedan.

The way I drive (more economy focused than performance), I'd be fine with the 1000 or 1300cc engine instead of the big 1500. I won't fuss about that, though, it does well on the gas and has plenty of power.

MadMax · 04-15-2009, 08:44 AM

Excellent list!

I would only add at least one locking glovebox! Not that it wouldn't be easy to open, but there should be at least one!

Cheers! M2
