Accordian style shift boots are where its at!

1)Rims/tires
2)Tint
3)Armrest...ANY armrest!!
4)Shift knob (really minor, but you spend so much time touching it! Its like handlebar grips and saddles on a bike)
5)Tie: Tachometer or Rear Bumper protector for LB. I load guitars and amps, so I'd have destroyed the paint by now without it!

That being said, I'd really like to have a mildly upgraded stereo, Ipod connectivity lowering springs and Temp/Oil gauges. Seriously, how do people live with idiot lights? I always thought they looked to street-racer-ish, but I'm going to add an A-pillar gauge set, so I can KNOW when she's getting hot or low on pressure, not after its too late!

1. Manu-matic transmission (I know its available in europe, but its not even an option in the 'states or canada)
2. Auto climate control (with dual zone) (also available in eruope, but not here)
3. AWD/4WD (hey, its crazy, but the similarly priced suzuki sx4 has it, and so does the vitz in certain countries)
4. All yarises should have the darker plastic door pieces that the "S" models have, sorry, but I think the light gray looks really cheap.
5. AT LEAST a 6 speaker audio system (I know that it isn't great, but I am not talking about crazy stuff that would cost thousands of dollars, I am talking about things that would actually be feasible for toyota to have as an option at least while still staying in the price range. And hey, I think the yaris is like the only car in the US that doesn't even have an option for 6 speaker audio!)

seeing as I'm almost finished paying the wifes yaris and the fact that Im still sore over her getting the S model sedan and I got the bare bones liftback, Ive been thinking of revamping my yaris so I wont want to drive hers anymore.

1. Tachometer (not so much because I need it as because My wifes car has one )
2. Window tint
3. Bodykit and a "not too over the top" spoiler
4. lowering springs etc...
5. light weight rims of some sort
6. a paint job... Im thinking black or gun metal gray
7. a calvin sticker Pissin on SUVs or bad gas mileage or something.

I wouldnt mind doing a weight reduction and throwing in some of those light weight pulleys too... well, I gess seeing as this is a wish list, maybe a superCharger too

One thing I dont want is a Loud exhaust. I could deal with something a little more sporty but its gotta be reasonably quiet.
