I just naturally tend to drop the F-bombs alot and never needed to monitor that on other forums I post on... so its a natural habit/way of speech with me.. I type as I'd speak/think.

And yea, Mord-Sith DO rule! My yaris is named "Cara" Shes' MOST DEF my fav!!

I freakin' love her!

Mord-Sith are the coolest character EVER created in a fantasy serious if you ask me! So hella original and freaking intense! LOVE THEM!

"Cara" the name just suits mine! It came to me like a week after I bought her!

Is she red, btw?

My Yaris is Bayou Blue, but something about her just suited me naming her Cara after the Mord-Sith.

If your ride was RED, then naming her Cara would be even more so appropriate!

At least you still have the Ducati, although from what I remember the Yaris would get better mileage!

Did you get a diesel at least?

Nope but it gets better mpg than the jeep 24/30

Well it is supposed to get an estimated 40/50mpg but then thats all relative to how you ride it

I have NEVER met anybody with a Ducati, that drove in anything approaching a fuel saving mode.

The day after I bought my yaris i drove it over to a friends house to show it off and go out to lunch. As I drove up I noticed the car in front of me was a red lotus convertible. And they wound up parking across the street. I got out and the two guys in the lotus came over and started asking me questions about my yaris. They were just gushing over it. Asking me all sorts of questions. I found that kind of interesting with thier big interest in my yaris considering they were driving a 100,000 thousand dollar car.

We'll hafta talk, but congratulations buddy on missys new car! I can SO picture her in a VW... she'll love that convertible option (obvioulsy)

Fuck, you need to send me pics, i need more details!!!!!! im dying over here ;)

Have fun w/ the FJ man!! Blast the fuck outta it... but seriously, make sure its euro or trance, none of that other mess thats so popular down there!

CHEERS ^5

I will take some snapshots tonightto let you see her.. I believe this vehicle was designed for missy

I am totally digging the FJ and the aftermarket sound system is remarkably good as well.. especially when you pair it with that new Nickelback CD

(kidding, i dislike nickelback)

I rode around in at 14mpg car. I have had many cars in my short life as a driver. I grew up with a ford van due to my mothers disability, then I had a plymoth horizon. After that it was my choice as a nanny to use either a 15 seat van, suburbon, or a ford explorer. I loved the Explorer when I had just the little ones with me. I then met my husband and he owned a Jeep Wrangler. 14 mpg on a good day, only going downhill in san fransisco. Now I own a Yaris. A cute compact car with lots of potential.

First it smiles at me when I walk up to it. Second I get noticed driving down the street. Third, no one on my block or for that matter in my town owns one yet.
4th with all the money saved on gas I can go on a cruise and afford payments and insurance.

Cute factor, this car outside sits higher then most cars of its class, it has a smile on all of the time, and it is earth friendly.
MY yaris has all of 200 miles on it. and I already know I am going to be doing some slight mods to it when the parts get on the market.

Ok so finished rambling enjoy your day. I am going to take my Yaris out for a drive.

I don't fell dorky at all for loving my Yaris other than it's a little different (center cluster, hiding little aux glovebox, cupholder location,) all of which I think are very cool. The style of this thing I believe really rocks, and all the intrest it attracts. At 38+ mpg I just tell people it's my four wheel covered motorcycle.

YotaYarisUSA · 05-25-2006, 08:59 PM

I think the Yaris is the greatest little car of all time!!! Its sweet looking, looks like a little Camry, I'm not much on the liftback,but thats what the Sedan is 4 :) And the other way around,if you are a liftback fan then they have the perfect Yaris 4 you:)

The little car is awesome,and its not really that little, and it just happens, to be best car on the road today,the best car Toyota has ever made

I say we race the Yaris in Nascar

We are not worthy of the Yaris

Happy Yaris Hunting!!!

I hope this isn't so.. my wife was really concerned about the crash safety of the beetle.

Mordisth really do rule but are you sure the Vibe is worthy of the name Cara ?

(unless of course the Vibe is red in colour

foober · 06-03-2006, 09:41 AM

There are two main reasons I picked the yaris. The 40 miles to the gallon was a big one. But the car's reliability and how well its built was number #2. I read that the echo was actually the best built car in the last 10 years. The most relible. Less repairs ect.. . Considering the yaris is just about the same car except with a few changes I thought that a big plus. I was pleasantly suprised at the looks. Its a pretty cute looking car.

After driving it for the first week I'd buy my yaris all over again over any other car. To me its the most practicaly built car to date. And thats what I wanted. The most user freindly practical car in the world. Thats my yaris.

ROFl, not a good way to introduce yourself to the board.

I bet she'd disagree.
