Well, I finally got one!

What the...? Hey! They put the steering wheel on the wrong side!!

I like the interior, too. I thought they all had leather seats?

SWEET! We have a new member to the family! Don't be a stranger! Welcome to the FAM!

Nope, leather's not popular in Japan for some reason so only to 175 special edition got the red/black leather that you guys all have.

The seats are the same recaros, just with a nastier fabric!

Cheers Chopper - don't underestimate the Yaris though! Fuel consumption IS going to be a scare...

Thanks for the (re)welcomes everyone!

Congrats and welcome, from across the pond.

Well... its sitting one my driveway like some sort of UFO and I can't stop grinning from ear to ear!

Couple of slight issues but nothing pressing - I'll probably stick up my questions tomorrow.

One fill of petrol cost me a smidge under £70 (that's $140 to you guys!) so I'm wondering, what sort of range should I expect?

**wanders over to window to admire it again...***

Pics to follow tomorrow!

I get about 300 miles to the tank (not that the "almost empty" light is on, but when I get to around 300 miles I fill up and I am close to empty). The US model holds 22 gallons - I'm not sure about the JDM. I think I last calculated around 16 mpg (US gallons). The supercharger and a lead foot keeps me from getting much better mileage-wise.

I can get 19 or 20 mpg average, but it is very flat here And yeah, seven years on, and I still look back and smile.
