still on original front wheel bearings
(why I searched his repairs list: I've got an 07 from Gilroy CA that is rust free, unmodified and not beat. Seems like a front wheel bearing is making noise.)

I work in Gilroy I'm at around 315k, the list of repairs on this car has been minimal: Alternator, accessory belt, radiator fan, a few sets of plugs and fuel filter. Its got plenty of clunks and squeaks. My car has light mods, lowered since 1k (spring then coilovers), air intake and exhaust.

My absolutely red Gilroy-dealer Yaris apparently never saw a drop of rain or particle of salt until a skater/BMX camp counselor drove it east a couple summers ago @ about 135k miles. I first went to see it w/ a set of ramps and found cars had paint in places I never imagined.

Took a couple weeks to close the deal, and only then did I first notice that about half the clear coat was gone from the roof and window pillars.

(Got a bottle of green "Corrosion Block" from a Florida company and squirt all the visible seams on summer-winter wheel swaps...stuff might actually BE functional snake oil. It smells OK.)

I have replaced my wheel bearings twice in just over 100k miles yet people try to tell me that excessive speed doesn't bother them. (Rolling my eyes)

In addition to my above repairs. I recently replaced my outer tie rod ends this wkd gone @ 558,675 miles. My next repair is going to be my valve seals in preparation for the turbo kit. I plan on running 6-7lbs on the stock internals and ECU and fuel system with 558,000+ miles on them.

I have everything for the project. The only thing I'm missing is time. I simply don't have the time to install everything.

This thread adds to my belief that the Yaris is the new VW Beetle. Is this car still alive? (Hope so).

To think my 06 has only just done 150,000.

Any repairs since last update?
