Toyota Echo

[Euro19]

Hmm, I didn´t know there was Echo enthousiasts around!!
Because of the styling and everything it´s obvious people don´t buy it much in North America, and the ones that do are looking for something new... even if it´s hideous.

my uncle has purchased a strip model, stick shift, gutless, ugly echos..:finger: The only positive thing about that car is that it has good gas mileage. The interior really isnt that big, but they do use every square inch to obtain the maximum interior space.
Other than these 2 insigificant things, echos are horrible vehicles. But they are very popular in Toronto where my uncle lives, as i saw many of them out on the prowl on the streets

People who diss the ECHO dont understand this car's platform.

Car is based on same platform as the Vitz and Yaris which are raced extensively in Asia and Europe. There are a variety of TRD parts for the car.

The ECHO in the US has a hot engine - 1.5 liter DOHC VVT-i makes 108 HP. Car only weighs 2000 lbs. It has vented front disk brakes as well. Stock engine will drag the car zero to 60 in 8.5 seconds.

My Echo has Intrax Sport springs, 16x7 wheels, 205/40/16 Dunlops, TRD front strut brace, rear suspension brace, K&N air/oil filters, Koni shocks.

Bought my car new for $9800

i guess the echo is alright, the thing it is just doesnt appeal to my style. I would take it for long trips or soemthing, just cuz of the mpg. Also I think that the goverment should buy some to save some money, and the pizza delivery guys should drive them to save some gas money.
