Hello there fellow Yaris enthusiasts. My name is Diego and I'm new to the whole Yaris world. I recently just got my brand new 2013 Yaris SE 4 door hatch on Tuesday, and I got to say I love it. It's an awesome car and I love the fact that I got in a 5spd trans. It was hard to find especially due the fact the it's brand spanking new only 50 miles from the dealership and it was manual trans. I just felt like sharing a couple of pics of the car and stuff and hope to meet some cool people on here. Thanks guys.

Did Centennial have it in stock, or did they have to do a dealer trade to get it for you ?

Clean! Like literally! Lol

matti · 04-04-2014, 11:28 AM

Cool! That color is really growing on me.

Thirty-Nine · 04-04-2014, 11:48 AM

Nice choice!

Man you are in for it now...great gas mileage, years of trouble-free driving, constant stares...what were you thinking??

Welcome & really excited for ya here, 'cause I know the feeling, still! Next Friday will be 1 year since I picked my 2013 Yaris L up from the dealer, and it's all I think of...I still have about another 5 years or so of break-in period 'cause it's only got 6,400 miles on it...

Thanks for posting the photos!! It looks awesome! Look at his face, he's got that Yaris stare already...!

Lot's of manual fans here, it's actually great to see that. They ARE fun to drive, it becomes 2nd nature in no time at all. Good you are not too far from the dealer.
Yes, that gray metallic really grows on you...it is sharp!

Congrats on your new purchase. I love the color, as well. Excellent choice.

As promised guys I said I was gonna be updating this post with new thing I do to my Yaris. So far here is the first mod. Not a big one but something to start it off. Just go my shift knob that I ordered from eBay. It's a white derlin or duracon what ever you call it but it's good because it doesn't absorb heat or cold. I had a knob similar to this on my Honda Del Sol. I love the way it looks though, it's just a nice offset of color compared to the rest of the car. It was a little bit of a hassle trying to put it on because it didn't screw in super easy but with a little force I got it in there, now the knob has the grooves of the thread. Just wanted to share with you guys. Thanks, hope you guys are having a good day ride safe.

Old stock knob

New white duracon knob

Given how intense the heat can get in Las Vegas, I can understand the need/desire for this accessory.
