#11 of 5646 Ok, I have decided by mong1 Oct 23, 2000 (3:38 am)
I'm going to get the Seafoam Blue... it is real rare, the dealer said it is hard to find, I'm going to get it anyway (punish the dealer for stressing me out and push me so hard to buy from them ;p ). Does anyone have any gallery of Echo to share? I came across these site when looking for gallery: Red http://www.carweb.com/featurearticle/cw_article17.html Seafoam Blue (I don't think this is the actual color, should be close to): http://www.toyota.com/cgi-bin/top_frame.cgi?low_frame=echo%2fecho.tmpl&data_frame=%2fecho%2fintro_echo.html Gold: http://www.auho.com/autopics/html/picsToyotaEcho1.html Silver: http://www.auho.com/autopics/html/picsToyotaEcho2.html Blue: http://www.autospeed.com/C_articles/A_0665/P_1/article.html Green (the top picture): http://www.theautochannel.com/news/writers/lhill/2000echo.html I really want a picture that can be used as my desktop wallpaper... oh my god... I'm addicted to Echo o o o o))))...... PS: I'm expecting to pay $14,250 for a 4 door, 5 speed manual, with upgrade package 1 and 2, the rear spoiler, floor mat, alloy wheel... am I paying too much? What should I expect?
#12 of 5646 floor mats- mongl1 by forgetmenot2 Oct 23, 2000 (5:41 am)
I got 2 floor mats at a discount place for $10.00 total. They fit real nice and are plastic with the grooves in them to catch the water, mud, etc. I like those as you can take them and hose them down to clean um. By the way did I tell you the dark blue is really pretty and not that dark, oh ya guess I did. Well I haven`t seen the light blue and I think I would have really liked that just as much. Now go get your car. !!!!
#13 of 5646 Mong1 and Djmick2 by echoluvrst Oct 23, 2000 (6:07 am)
Mong1,      Just wondering given that your hotmail address starts with kc, if you live in the Kansas City area like I do. If you do, would love to meet with you once you get your Echo. Good luck on finding an Echo in the Seafoam Blue. Especially if you do live in Kansas City since that seems to be the rarest color. Have seen a lot of silver ones though. Originally, I was going to get a Seafoam Blue sedan, but I have decided to get a Blacksand Pearl Sedan instead. Djmick2,      I am a thirty seven year old male living in Kansas City. I have no tickets and no accidents for about ten plus years. I drive a 1993 Ford Escort Wagon with policy limits of 100k/300k/100k and low deductibles. My insurance is through American Family and I pay $62 a month. For the same limits, the insurance on my Echo is going to be about $70 a month. I think you are really getting hosed on insurance.
#14 of 5646 I am now published by echoluvrst Oct 23, 2000 (6:09 am)
I went out and bought the latest issue of AutoWorld Weekly and got a bigger kick out of it than usual. The reason is that I have a letter in the issue. Mine is the one that takes AutoWorld to task for using a misleading cover blurb about a comparison involving three Korean cars. My roommate was suitably impressed now that I am a published author. : ) LOL.
#15 of 5646 Few items by echoluvrst Oct 23, 2000 (2:34 pm)
Azecho, I am not sure if I am famous or anything. More like infamous. : ) Or maybe like the name of that movie, "Almost Famous." Shylocxs, your post brings back some fond memories. When I had a '92 Escort GT that was brand new, I thought I had to get a personal property tax statement from somewhere 90 miles away from where I was and be back in a very short time. This resulted in a trip where I took corners at 90 miles an hour and going down straightaways with the needle buried. I made the trip there and back in time, but the kicker was that because it was a new car, I did not need the personal property tax receipt after all.      The more I read about defensive driving courses, the more I want to take one. Does anyone know of any that are held close to Kansas City? Close would be up to four hours away.
#16 of 5646 wood trim by smalley1 Oct 23, 2000 (2:47 pm)
That wood trim looks neet . I have used rainex on my window it help a lot on the misty days as I do not have intermented wipers. I whant to see if I can get a alarm and power door locks with cruse control installed but my dealer said if you install any non toyota parts you void the worntee so do not want to do that.
#17 of 5646 Went over 10,000 miles today by cwo4 Oct 23, 2000 (5:42 pm)
I've had my car since Aug 11th. Gotta go. There's a road I haven't driven yet.
#18 of 5646 Anyone took their car in yet to by goodcarma Oct 23, 2000 (6:10 pm)
get their car looked at for that recall?
#19 of 5646 Mong1 by vadp Oct 23, 2000 (6:36 pm)
Your freinds are right. The Echo does look very girly. No surprise here since it is a direct replacement for the Tercel and the Paseo. Just a word of advice. If the car is strictly an appliance to you, the Echo is the way to go(reliable, economical etc). But if your freind's comments bother you in any way, wait and get something more muscular.
#20 of 5646 I guess enough people complained... by rjgee Oct 23, 2000 (7:20 pm)
The review has been updated again.... Still negative, but at least it contains some facts this time (well, discounting the used Civic spiel)
