Newbie here, just got a 2010 Yaris hatch!

[Deathegg]

Hi Everyone,
My name is Marc, I would like to say hello, since I just joined. I just bought a new-to-me 2010 Yaris hatch. Yay me!

I'm coming from a Ford Festiva. Recently the alternator went on it, and I decided that I didn't want to put a $140 part in a $300 car. I wanted something like the Festiva (small hatchback), but, you know....NEW!

My new Yaris is Meteorite Metallic, 5-speed, and has only 6000 miles!. The original owner traded it since he felt it was too small for him. It has the convenience pkg, all-weather pkg and floor mats. (original sticker in the owners manual: $14,578).

A friend of mine is a manager at a large dealership, and had it on his lot for $12,700, he sold it to me for what they owned it for: $10,700. It pays to know the manager!

Looking forward to it giving me many years of trouble-free motoring, as the Festiva did before it. The only thing I'm having trouble adjusting to is the electronic throttle, but I'm getting used to it. So far I really like it, and I'm certainly learning alot here @ YW.
