Bummer you dont have a manual. Not much you can do with a auto. BTW: I like what you have done to your Yaris Blen, it looks really good!

You could just drive it, enjoy your tunes, and your girfriend (or wife)!

well even with a manual you can't exactly drift, that's really the realm of rear-wheel drive cars...

So, if you want something exciting, convert your car to rear wheel drive!!!

Get some A/V equipment in the car... so you can have more motion going on while driving.

keep modding it. all cars will eventually get boring to their owner. shoot, my sister wants to get a new car every two months (good thing she doesn't tho). like mentioned, get some more ICE to play with.

heh, if you want to drift, sell your Yaris and buy an old, but good condition rwd car that's a stick. i had one before, pretty fun in the rain. hahahaha...

Make a deal with the devil and race every other car in town for your soul instead of the pink.
