2005 echo hatchback
 
Ive decided this is going to be my next car, its definetly going to be black, slammed with 15" light rims, I'm also probably going to buy one used without warranty so I can rebuild a celica motor, turbo it and swap it in the echo, I thins this car is full of potential, would be stupid fast with the above plans yet very fuel efficient.

hey the way I looked at it its the ultimite sleeper, yes there ugly but very small and very light, jdm land acually has some decent fender flares and non ricey aero kits (not body kits). I love hondas dont get me wrong but sometimes its nice to build something different.

Good luck finding one. They stopped making the Celica, Echo and the MR2 this year.

echo hatch was canada only i think, i saw one at the mall of america and freaked out becase i thought it was a vitz, but the rear lights are different.

if you are in the market for that, remember that the honda jazz and fit are coming to america soon.

Re: 2005 echo hatchback
 
All this love for this car(You guys must be canadian :P), yet I'm getting made fun of for the idea by you hardcore HMT folks :-\ Come on guys lighten up, I bet one day I'll actually do this and post up a vid and leave you all in awe.
You should respect a guys desire to be original, Its not like I'm asking how to install a mid wing :P

Um, really wasnt makin fun, anything odd is cool, my friend your talking to someone who once lowered and sprayed....yes "noz" a 1988 merc topaz xr5....so yah, different is cool....cept for them prime 5 spokes, different when it's just plain gay looking is not so cool....and the mid wing?? That wasnt a joke? Seems simple, bring car to body shop, hand keys to dude at counter, when finished pick car up, pay with fathers visa, then head down to local Tim Hortons and show all the cool kids your Mid wing...And your neon's, and your "agressor" front body kit, and yep, i guess i dont need to go on do i?
