2008 Toyota Yaris S 4-dr sedan
Vehicle specifics:
Seller notes: This
5-spd manual Toyota Yaris S
sedan is one great little car. It was
the right answer for me in the “standard car vs. hybrid” debate. I saved over $8000 vs. a Prius, whose
batteries would be out-of-warranty by now anyway. I can wring out over 400+ miles in one
11-gallon tankful with an 80% highway/20% city driving mix. Speaking of batteries, there’s a new, bigger $200+
AGM-type starter battery under the hood.
It’s a bit of overkill, but starting and stopping are two of the most
important things a car does. This baby
just got four “new shoes” too, in the form of General Altimax RT43’s & wheel covers all
around. They stick like glue, rain or
shine, and seriously outperform the O.E.M. tires. This car has a tiny turn-radius, it can U-turn like a dog
chasing its tail. Its size and maneuverability
also make parallel parking a breeze. The
professionally installed window tint significantly cuts down on summer heat and
UV-damage. This car has not been smoked
in, nor carried pets or kids. My neighbor managed to rub the bumper of his car into the
driver’s side rear door of my baby while backing out and talking on his
cell. It’s actually hard to notice
unless you’re looking for it, as you can see in the picture of that door. There are a few touches that make this car more unique
than the average Yaris.
It’s an “S” model with factory body kit, but I opted for no rear
wing. That’s one less thing to worry
about breaking off or making noise. I
also had the rear lettering removed and the trim panel above the license plate
body color-matched, subtle but elegant. ***Special Feature:
Although there’s a factory AM/FM/CD player, I recently purchased a new Pioneer DEH-X6600BT for
the USB-charging, convenient AUX-input jack, & Bluetooth phone & audio
features. I also have the Metra wiring harness & dash kit,
along w/ the $80+ factory dash panel necessary to fit the new radio
properly. That’s about $250 in audio
goodies that comes in the deal. Why not give my little baby a new home?! You will get Toyota‘s quality & reliability with small car fuel economy, but
a surprising amount of room for you & your life. |

Carmakers, NHTSA to unveil auto-emergency braking agreement tomorrow
Wed, Mar 16 2016Happy St. Patrick's Day Eve. Tomorrow, there will be green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and automatic emergency braking for all. Weird combo, we know. But on St. Patty's we can expect an official announcement from a pact of automakers making auto-braking systems standard equipment by 2022. That's per a report from Reuters, which cites three sources familiar with the plans. Originally announced in September 2015 by 10 automakers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the agreement is expected to be even larger when the details are unveiled tomorrow. According to Reuters, the manufacturers of 99 percent of the US domestic market's vehicles will be represented by the new agreement. It's believed that standard AEB systems could prevent thousands of accidents across the country. Expect more on the official announcement when it's made. Related Video:
Toyota i-Road is no less strange in the flesh
Tue, 05 Mar 2013We've seen plenty of three-wheeled creations in our day, but none quite like the Toyota i-Road Concept. The "personal mobility vehicle" offers seating for two with driver and passenger positioned in a tandem position. While that may sound more like a motorcycle than a car, the closed cockpit means riders don't need a helmet. The design also takes a page from the 2008 Peugeot HyMotion3 Concept with an articulating front suspension that allows the driver to lean through corners thanks to "Active Lean" self-balancing technology. Unlike the funky Pug, however, the i-Road is a fully electric plug-in vehicle.
While there are just five-horsepower on hand from an electric motor, the i-Road should serve up a range of around 30 miles thanks to its lithium-ion battery, and Toyota claims the cells can be topped off in three hours with a "conventional domestic power supply." Sounds majestic. Take in the full press release below.
Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts
Tue, 23 Jul 2013Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).
