I BIT THE BULLET!

[Tiddlygoose]

Toyota just puts in what most people would want in a basic car. All I got was the power option and the keyless entry. Have you ever tried to drive down the farms roads and crank a window up or down? I would go off the road! With the power windows, you just push a button. I also have them in my Tacoma, which has 100,000 miles with no issues what so ever, so I will trust that the Yaris' windows will work at least as long.

It is a great little inexpensive car that holds a helluva lot of stuff if you need to haul your life somewhere else!

I revived this thread as I noticed that our own resident dipshit Otterhere has been bashing our beloved Yaris over at CarTalk.com (Hatin' on the Yaris and Still Hatin' on the Yaris)!

Dear God, what a fucking whiner! What in the fuck were you expecting for $11K? And you really think you would be happier with a Hyundai Accent Hatch? You must be a real fucking idiot!

The next time you "bite the bullet," make sure it is leaving the barrel of a gun at maximum velocity!

A broken record, really. And they're telling him/her the same things we did.

*rolls eyes* he should sell the Yaris and just take the bus. The Yaris deserves better than that guy.

I got my 07 and 09 LB's with no power . Just the way I ordered them . I ordered my 07 in Nov. 05 and took delivery in June 06 . Hell it was three months before I (my son) figured out that I could plug in my Ipod Nano
I put my Ipod ( with Vera Bradley case ) next to the e-brake . It has a 3' retractable plug ( Toyota dealership $ 8.99 Scoche brand) .

In my opinion , the Yaris LB is the best car in the US market at ANY price . Don't get me wrong , The EVO X , Lotus 240 S , and GTR are all affordable , but they take away from the driving experience . I don't want some computer reigning in on my fun . Not to mention to replace the tires on the aformentioned vehicles is a house payment or two . Besides , who the hell wants to ride around while sitting on a dead cow . I hear all the time about how "gay" the polka dot seats are , but what people don't seem to realize is those "gay" seats grip like hell . Ever hear about anyone sliding around in Yaris seats ?

The Yaris LB helped me get back to the fundamentals of driving . I don't need massive amounts of HP to have fun anymore . Sure , going 0 to 60 in 4 seconds is fun , but it is even more fun to make a 300 + HP car relent to a 103 HP car in the twisties . Even better yet , when the 300 + HP car finally catches up at the overlooks , demand to see your turbo kit . Yes its priceless to see the look on their faces when the figure out , "it really is only 103 HP "


I love my Yaris ( Coryn ) so much I am making a movie about it , with original soundtrack . So far I have about 120 hours of footage . Just so ya'll know , there will be REAL people playing REAL instruments on my soundtrack , and NO sampling . I am creative enough that I don't have to steal someboby else's material . My approach to the movie will in essence , be just like the Yaris , that is , bare bones , and HELLACIOUS FUN .

I couldn't agree more. There is not ONE thing I don't like about my car; and yes - it makes me giggle everytime I am taking the onramp to the freeway at 55-60 and the sports car behind me can't even cling to the road like I can and has to take it wider ... I didn't think that was possible. I love it :)

For $15k I got everything I could ever ask for in a car (well, I would have REALLY liked a sunroof, but the dealer told me they weren't available for the yaris becuase of the shape of the roof ... liar ... lol) I have all the fun little additions and I couldn't be happier.

That guy is just a loser and obviously pissed off he can't afford a Ferrari so is taking out on the Yaris. Way to "upgrade" to an Accent, assclown.

lol - nice

[HTM Yaris]

I love my Kitties

[kngrsll]

did you stop aging DJ? damn...

btw, im going to need a seat upgrade! i was pivoting in it at roebling like crazy, i was sliding out of it!

[HTM Yaris]

Ken , the Kitty ( not Hello Kitty ) , has magical powers

You don't need a seat upgrade , knee pads will do just fine Besides going into a turn at 90 mph pulling 1.05 G's is an exception . A very good one I might add

Oh , I expect to see you at my Mountain Cruise on July 18 .........

LOVE it (the pictures of the HK stuff)!! my HK obsession has gotten really bad ... I have appliances, alarm clocks, calendars, bubble gum dispensers, floor mats, my oil cap is HK, license plate covers, I have TONS of imported stuff Japan & Korea, jewelery, movies ... I can't even list everything. It's bad. Seriously. I want the HK guitar so bad - but I play the viola and bass so I just don't think that is going to work out lol

I draw the line at HK exhaust pipes and bubble gum pink cars though. Even that makes me sad for the car.

We just hijacked the hell out of this thread.

Hijack over!

I am a big fan of CarTalk (Click and Clack), and I subscribe to their email list as well as download their podcast to listen to in my Yaris. I decided to search their site to see what they had on our beloved car and saw otterhere's comments. I recall them same BS on this forum, so I thought I would call them to everyone's attention. CarTalk is a huge forum for automotive enthusiasts, and I wouldn't want people on there to get the wrong impression of the Yaris!

When I was researching the car, I found a web site that had a couple of hundred reviews from actual Yaris owners (not magazine reviews, but people who spent their own money on the car). I remember that although people has some minor complaints, each and every one of them was happy overall with their Yaris. I recall telling my wife it had to be a good car, as I couldn't remember ever seeing so many reviews of a particular model where every one of them was positive.

I fully understand that the Yaris doesn't have some of the luxury items that you can find on more expensive cars, and I also can tell you I could have easily spent twice as much money on a car as I did on my Yaris; but I consider the Yaris' 'bang for the buck' to be one of the best values available today. Yes, there are cheaper cars, but the Yaris was exactly what I wanted in a commuter car and six months later I am still very pleased with my purchase.

So I have to lean over to open the passenger window or unlock the door; big shit, I have to do that in the Jeep anyway (when it has doors and windows on it!) so I am not missing anything in that regard except the cost of replacing those components if and when they break.

Overall, I guess I am a little defensive to criticism concerning the Yaris. I know it is not perfect, but it is a damn good car and I won't tolerate assclowns like otterhere spreading lies about it on other forums!

Cheers! M2

Well i think we are all biased, having owned the cars and loving it? But i mean.. whats not to love... his car might have sucked in handling... mine is like a dream now... and it isnt too slow.. If i can keep up with certain cars in the high 10's range then im fine. Yes it is a real bang for your buck car.... Great stuff that toyota offered for cheap... its dam brilliant =)... now if only google would release a car..
