Greetings, just picked up a used 07 with 13K miles on it..(Car was involved in a criminal trial and was used as evidence hence the low mileage)...

It's name is Bebe' (As in the Neuport Bebe' fighter from WW1)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nieuport_11

It'll replace our long serving Hyundai Accent 2 door AKA The "Moon-mobile"

Just a few fix-ups are left for Bebe...Headlamp pigtail...and the antenna wire from the "A" pillar to the radio...and she'll be ready for battle..

Hello fellow Yaris enthusiast. I'm excited for each of you to join our team at PKFlyer Racing on the development of our 2007 Yaris 3dr HB. We came into the car just recently and have been excited to get working on it. We have many upgrades in store for it, with a motor pull happening currently as I get started on this blog. We look to steal tips and share in the great advice amongst those on this website.
Look for us in your blog or rearview mirror.

New to these forums but not to my Yaris. I bought my 2007 Toyota Yaris 4 door sedan (dark blue, automatic) back in September 2006. I had ordered it several months prior new from the factory... originally wanted it in the light blue variety, but the dealership said there was a paint defect a month or two after I ordered it and asked if I would be ok with the dark blue instead (or I'd have to wait a really long time if not). So I ended up with dark blue. I have the power package, fog lights and cruise control on it.

My boyfriend recently got a new stereo for his 1993 Toyota Supra, so once he finishes installing that I'm getting his hand me down a Pioneer FH-P800BT which we will be installing once we get me a new center dash piece so it will fit where the existing factory radio/cd player is currently.

I just had her at the shop to repair a door ding so I also paid for them to re-paint the front and rear bumpers which had some paint missing over the years (the front due to rock chips, the back due to luggage hitting the bumper and removing paint). So now she's back from the shop and looking awesome, shiny, and fully polished again.

Later this year or early next year depending on my motivation I'm going to get new wheels since right now I've got stock wheels and the cheap looking plastic hubcaps and can't wait to get rid of those :) I've had my car paid off since early last year, so really there's no reason I can't put some money back into improving it now that I haven't been making monthly payments for over a year.

This photo is from back in 2006 when I first got the car... I'll take some more recent photos later.

Hi all, first post. Just bought brand new 2010 sedan, 4 door, 5 spd manual with convenience package. Pacific Blue. $2,500 off sticker price, with 1.9% financing. Price of gas made me do some math, so after figuring how much I pump into the Xterra (Nissan), a few extra bucks and I could have a new car!! I was surprised at the size of trunk and interior room in this car, and of course, I was happy with "Toyota" as in: Reliability. Looking forward to saving at the pumps (I also have an 81 Z-28 [5.7 L] who is very thirsty )Quick question: Any way to display L/100 km or mpg on ODO? (Don't have owners manual, its getting dropped off tomorrow). Looking forward to browsing these forums for info on my new ride One last thing: Any tips on "break-in" ??

Hello,

I'm NEexpat, first post and all......................

Joined after I bought my Yaris last November and have been reading everything I can ever since.

Thanks to everybody here. BTW, installed my cruise control last weekend without a hitch, special thanks to CTScott for all the info and to bairjo for his You Tube video.

I'm thinking keyless entry will be next.

cheers,

Talking New Guy Here...

Well hello all, I am the proud new owner of a '07 silver Yaris. It used to belong to my wife but as soon as we found out we had a little one on the way we went and got her a new 4 door easier to load/unload baby Ford Edge.

So with that being said, the Yaris is my new mode of transportation. I am really excited to get some changes/fixes done to it, and greatly appreciate any help/information from all you Yaris Fanatics out there.

As my status says I am in the US NAVY. I have been serving since Sept 2001, I am deploying this summer for a long 9 month cruise and am not looking forward to leaving my Daughter, Wife, and Yaris behind.

Hello to all,

I am proud owner of 11 Yaris 3dr Manual. This will be our commuter car. After falling in love with this car when my wife and I were in PR we had to go out and get one. With fuel expected to go to $5 per gallon we had to make some moves, as my other cars are HUGE gas guzzlers. This is my way of going GREEN.
