2007 Yaris for my kid

I just bought a 2007 Yaris, 2-door hatch with only 80k km on it as my daughter's first car. I'm really surprised at how easy it is to drive and how comfy the seats were. I'm actually more comfortable cruising with this in the city than with my 2019 Honda Fit Sport. Not as agile as the Fit, but way comfier.

I know this will probably outlast my Honda since it's got everything you need and nothing you want. No complications whatsoever. Plus, it has the Toyota pedigree going for it and I've seen these Yaris go to 300 to 400k drama-free.

I'm probably going to have to install a new deck with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto; but I managed to MacGyver something for now by popping open the cubby in front of the driver and placing my smartphone sideways inside while it's connected to a Bluetooth fm transmitter and driving with the compartment open

Just a question:
I want to replace the rusting steelies and I saw a 2001 Acura wheels that are 4x100 and 15 inches but with a bigger center bore. Will this be work for the Yaris? Thanks and we're glad to be part of the Yaris family.

Hey, congrats on the Yaris! They're really reliable cars and an awesome find for your daughter's first ride. I totally feel you about how comfy they are, they really surprised me too when I first drove one. About the Acura wheels, I'm not entirely sure, but I think they might fit. Just make sure to double check the offset and overall specs compatibility. You could also ask a wheel shop or even a local forum for more precise information. Btw, I heard foster parents in Oregon actually have a high number of Yaris as their preferred cars because they're so low maintenance and amazing on gas. Anyways, good luck with the wheel swap and I hope your daughter enjoys her Yaris!
