On Order!

Just put a deposit on a 2012 Yaris SE hatch in Blizzard Pearl 5spd,
hopefully it will be here by end of november.

Toyota sure did make some changes for the 12's, i was highly impressed!

Jealous! Hoping you get it before Xmas.

What changes did you like the most that made you want to buy the SE???

Congrats. I also am impressed with the '12s over the last gen cars. Toyota appears to actually be trying this time 'round.

The SE has a few interior and exterior changes, the bumper and fogs look much better, 4 wheel disc brakes, quicker steering rack and stiffer suspension.
although i have not seen an SE in person i feel that i wont be disappointed. i saw the LE and i thought it was great, so it can only get better!

id like to... but it is for sale as it has a spun bearing, and for the price to do what i want with it aka 400whp reliably, a yaris is close to the same price. but if no one buys it i will keep it and possibly just rebuild one day.

I'm yet to see a 12 up close. Can you post up some pics pls.

Also what do you think of the road noise? My 07 gets really bad road noise over 80km/h

Nice!

Not a lot of similarities between the new style and the old ones though...it looks like more like a Prius.
