Was home this morning (don't ask, long story) and my wife had The Price Is Right on TV. Wasn't really paying attention to it until the Final Showcase, where one individual was bidding on a pair of Yaris hatchbacks (one blue and the other black). There was also some outdoor furniture and lawn service in his showcase, but the guy bid $38,000 for the entire package and the actual price was just over $39,000, so he won. :headbang:

Both Yarii were dead stock manuals with the power package, and prices are always higher being the show's in California.

Still, it was good to see the cars as prizes, and someone win them! :w00t:

You should be able to watch today's show (18 Nov) tomorrow online here (http://www.cbs.com/daytime/the_price_is_right/video/). I'll try to download the clip and post it.

Cheers! M2

The video is loaded on the link in my first post, but I could not download it. However, here are some pics of the Yarii...

Does Toyota give them the cars for the show in exchange for advertising?

I guess they changed the old "only American" policy. I used to watch it when Bob Barker hosted, and only American branded cars were given away.

See I was thinking just the opposite... what's happened to the quality of the eye candy on that show?
