My brand new 2015 Yaris 1.3 VVTi
Hi I am a newbie here, and I'd like to introduce you my new Yaris, bought just 2 days ago
Bought in Slovakia (Europe), it is a 5 door hatch, 1,3 VVTi, 6- speed manual transmission, 16" rims, STYLE grade with Senso smart style packet. (keyless entry, Auto-dimming rear-view mirror, Cruise control, automatic AC, light and rain sensors) , and a lot of other stuff, which I am not able to say in English at this point :) New features of this model year 2016 vehicle are self tilting side rear-view mirrors, heated seats and some exterior parts, which are either in chrome or piano black. After more than a month of waiting and riding a public transport I am enjoying this car sooo much!!! Last edited by skocka; 12-30-2015 at 05:11 AM. |

Thanks for your comments! I'll take some more pictures later, it's been raining here since I bought this car
I do plan on doing some modifications, but nothing like getting lower, because I often have to park with the wheels on the curb and the roads are not perfect either, so I am going to leave it like it is. The first thing I want to do is to have some dark window films mounted as I don't want others to see what's inside on the backseats. And it helps a bit in summer, when it's really hot outside. There were Suntek films on my previous car and I liked them, so I'll probably go for this brand again. Then I am going to dismount and throw away this terrible armrest: It is the worst armrest I've ever seen and it is too EVERYTHING. Too long, too narrow, placed too high. Totally useless. I want to replace it by some aftermarket piece, I found this "Armster S" product, which looks suitable. The last thing (for now) which I want to change somehow is the position of the seat heating buttons. I would like to place them instead the upper-right blind button, because they are not visible from the driver's position at the current place. From the top view it looks OK but when sitting on my seat, I can see nothing because of the handbrake. That's my plan for now, for the future I'm considering mounting a rear window spoiler, but I am not sure what it would look like in combination with not getting lower :) |

You keep your Yaris very clean, that interior is beautiful. Curious to see which center armrest you will be buying, when you get your modifications going, share!

I wish that Toyota has put those particular 16" alloys on the USA SE instead of the black version alloys, along with the side-mirror turn-signals, and the upgraded climate control knobs/panel. The USA market always gets the short-end of the stick, compared to Europe/Japan and most other markets.

Well, I don't know what kind of climate control panel is in your car, but if there is not an automatic air conditioning, it is probably the same as in other European Yarises |

Did you find a clean way to remove that ugly armrest? I've got the same on mine, I removed it but it left that ugly hole in the seat side . How can I cover it?

Absolutely amazing!
How superior the non USA version of the car is. So many cool options/ capabilities we don't get here |
