Dad bought 2005 Toyota Echo

[Scouzer]

Nothing special to you guys, I know. But this is the first new car ever in the family. So we're pretty pumped.

$15171 out the door with FREE ALL WEATHER FLOORMATS. omg.

Canadian dollars, base model no options.

Pictures maybe when we get it next week

Congrats! Enjoy the new ride!

FYI I think next year is the last year of the echo. Yaris is replacing it.

edit: 12,500 USD? :Q

slow but it gets really good gas milage.

The Yaris looks like a bastard child of the Scion xA.

eh - it's not too slow - the hatchback only weighs like 2100lbs - about the same power to weight ration as the 1991 CRX Si, and it's probably a little quicker to boot

The Yaris is technically the mother of the xA and xB - since they're both based off of the Yaris

I suppose in Canada that's OK. In CT this summer, we had more than one humid 90 degree day.

 

[Scouzer]

You don't know hot until you drive in the sticky 95 degree humidity of Chicago in a car with dark leather seats and no AC.
