not too bad mod for the yaris,....

Well, went to Toyota showroom and take a look at the Yaris. It's a dissapointment to me. Overall the exterior of the car i have to admit look modern and funky compare to the Jazz. Interior space on the front and back are not bad but the back seats are bit tad tight if to compare to Jazz. But the boot space is a big let down to me. It's even smaller than the MyVi's boot space. As for the interior trims, it seems that it's not up to par of a Toyota marque coz Toyota is famous for built quality of the interior trim. Glove box, cup holder and other dashboard finishing feels cheap and flimsy. I do not know if its only the defect of the showcar i saw but the glovebox doesnt close well as there's a obvious gap. The MyVi dashboard finishing is even better although the design is not as good as the Yaris interior trim. And the unit that i viewed is the S version. One thing i like bout Yaris though is the solid feel of closing the door. Much more solid feel than the Jazz. Toyota could do better on the interior as they are what used to be famous for. More comments once i manage to get to test drive the Yaris if it's more fun to drive.

i kinda dont like the front of that.. too many holes..

maybe as a city run around, they yaris is good.. but in the terms of practicality, its a big let down due 2 the lack of rear passenger space n boot..

haha!! nonid to try....i know....hahaha!

Toyota Altis 1.8 with the TRC set to off and the power set to on, the VTEC Jazz smell smoke only.

eh the red yaris is it using ings bodykit?

the c-one bodykit makes yaris looks so fierce...

aiyah deng the gahmen la, yaris such a small car has to be sold tat expensive. add several K can get altis...

really boh song the gahmen now...

It's kinda expensive for this size and this class of cars....

Well the good news is UMW toyota plans to locally manufacture a toyota model in Mysia by 18 months time. That model is most likely either the avanza or vios.

What i would like to see is that the yaris to be at least locally assembled coz, if it priced at 70-80K, there will be a good demand on it.

i always have doubts when malaysians wanna set up a factory here 2 put 2gether a foreigner's car.. somehow, i always think that quality's gonna go down.. same thing wit plan of making the swift here, as well as the plan 2 make the chevy here too..

HaHa! For sale? I guess my dad oledi made his mind to get a yaris... coz he's more concerned about the 2nd hand value and i was asking him to buy a jazz but he dont wan... he's more into yaris
Anyway check these sites out... Lots of cool yarises or Vitz it is

that is a nice modded yaris

Altis 1.8 : 1.8-liter VVTi DOHC 16-valve in-line4 (145 hp @ 6,000 rpm; 188 Nm @ 4,200 rpm) 0-100km/h = 8.5 seconds

Jazz 1.5 Vtec : Inline 4 cylinder 16Valves SOHC VTEC and PGM-Fi Displacement 1497cc
Max power 81kW (110hp) at 5800rpm
Max torque 143Nm (14.6kgm) at 4800rpm 0-100km/h = 11.9 seconds

Jazz Vtec how to outrun Altis 1.8 leh?
can only compare altis with civic...

no prob... Hoho! tomorrow's motorshow's 1st day... hope i can get to see some cun modded cars there

wah u sure Altis 1.8 can do 0-100km/h in 8.5 secs ???
my old 2.0 civic can outrun 1.8 Altis by a very far distance but im sure my car CANNOT do better than 8.5sec in 0-100km/h ....
