A rather late reply, but thanks Dianne! Here he is after an extensive exterior detail job a couple of months ago. Such a BLAST to drive! Going to 17's with low profile tires, the TRD rear antisway bar and the TRD lowering springs make an awesome combo. It's like driving a full size, well maybe pint sized, slot car.

I now have just over 6,300 miles on him and I'm averaging 32 mpg with my daily round trip commute of 34 miles. I know other Yaris owners get better mileage, but I really don't care! I'm having too much fun to worry about MPG and when a fill up costs only $17, what the heck! If I need an altitude adjustment, I bust out the Tundra and take her for a drive. Life is good.
