2016's just barely starting to arrive!
New member here ...
I'm hoping to get a 2016 Yaris SE A4 in the next few weeks/ months? There are precisely 0 SE's within 100 miles of me as of today ... plenty non SE's. If I do actually get the car, I will reveal the reasons for my choice when I can buy/ lease (virtually) any car I want. As many here have stated ... the Yaris gets zero respect in the automotive world. I have test driven many new cars recently including the new fugly Scion iA/ Yaris. I have rented many, many cars and spent a lot of time in a rental Yaris L last year and learned that it is a GREAT car! Assuming I get the car ... there are 2 mods I will do immediately. Mostly to fix what the factory should have done. 1. Exhaust tip - I hate the unfinished look. 2. Brake Caliper paint - I hate the mechanical/ unfinished look thru the nice wheels. That's all -- the only 2 fatal problems for me about the appearance of the car. >>> I don't like window tinting! Wait and see if a Yaris appears in the stable.

after looking at her for 2 weeks now ....
the brake calipers actually do have a factory shiny coating that isn't too bad and that skinny exhaust pipe tip is kind of hidden underneath so it doesnt really bother me |

I put a S/S tip like this (Pilot Motorsport) on my '07 and '14. It actually fits better than the OEM Toyota tip and only cost about $10 at Walmart.
