Except for the speedo, it won't go past 70mph.

What's with the huge gun in the bottom left pic? Is that "man-balancing" the Toyota Echo engine?

Could be anything from a Prius to a Tundra. There is no Echo motor. Most have an Eco light to let you know when the gas mileag is good or bad, and only the Hybrids actually have an eco mode. So? Speeding down a neighborhood dead end street the prius can break the speed limit. Wonder what it really is??????

...and who would by such a car unless it was a 5.7ltr ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

If there's no "Echo" motor, what do they put in the "Echo"? Gotta be something, my neighbor jets off in his every morning, and I don't think he's pedaling ..................

Excuse me sssssssssir (and I say that in my Richard Simmons imitation voice and with my hand on my hip)....but there is was a Toyota Echo..

Attached Image

They changed the name to "Yaris" pretty quickly because the name wasn't nutty enough... In Japan they called it the Platz...

Platz

That is either a powerful 1.3L or fire-breathing 1.5L engine with roughly 90-100ish hp. Good thing there's a roll bar... HE'S HAD IT UP TO 70!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) This is a good one.

Well it's fast enough for the seller. Besides, it says "turbo" on the rear hood so it must be fast.

It looks to have a turbo body but the VIN begins with 911 instead of 930. What's up with that?
