whats up guys? thought i would introduce myself after following these boards for the past few months...

i've been looking to buy a yaris and now that the inventory is starting to grow i figured now would be a pretty good time. i visited two stealerships tonight, one of which i had to get up and walk out because they were feeding a big heaping pile of

. the second dealership gave me an appropriate offer but i am sure i can get them to come down just a tad bit more.

basically i want the base model LB yaris with 5spd tranny. no options if possible, however, i know this is a bit hard to come by so i will settle with what i can get. so far i've gotten the choice of a bayou blue LB yaris 5spd ($11,600) with the convienence package ($630), and the stupid vehicle shield ripoff package ($349) but they said they would deduct that charge (which they should). i don't want power anything and i could really care less for the convienence package but i don't mind paying for it if that's what it comes down to. they told me they can do this car for $13,454 out the door. seems pretty good to me. i told him it was close but i can't go over $13,000. i might be able to swing it if i walk in with a nice $1000 down payment in CA$H, they might fold and give in...who knows. he said there would be a little bit of room to negotiate. we shall see.

i also got another quote from another dealer who said $13,150 out the door. i am going to try and visit him tomorrow. mind you, they said the cars should be arriving soon so nothing is set in stone yet.

thought i would let you all know you might have a new yaris owner here in your forums.

take care and drive safe!
