Ask for Matt Heise extension 186

Tell him Chris with the 07 White Liftback sent you.. Awesome, awesome, dealership!! Bent over backwards for me in my quest to find one!

Sorry I dont have the phone number on me, but GOOGLE the dealership name, and use that number.

I had a diff experience: while I was still looking, I called lawrence and asked if they had any liftbacks "oh yeah, we have 2 and one's manual; but come down quick!!!"

35 minutes later I get there "we had one but it was sold yesterday. however, d!ckhole here will tell you all about it if you want to order one"

I had Bobby Rahal Toyota order me a blue liftback 5spd w/ combo B. They couldn't find any 5 spd liftbacks in PA, MD, or DE.

I can only speak from my personal experience.

From reading how you were treated, the is no way you spoke or delt with Matt Heise. Most likely some fast talking salesmen looking for a quickie sale.

I called Matt last Thursday, drove my Polar White LB home Saturday!

I had one on order with CarsDirect.com for over 6 weeks, and then it got "lost at the port......"

Called Matt, he had this same exact one (different color) due in Friday morning. So I guess it all worked out just right for me.

Do yourself a favor, and PUT AN ORDER IN!! You are going to drive yourself nuts trying to find one. At the same time though, tell the dealer to keep searching while your order is placed, and if one is found, you want to be able to get it.

Already ordered!

Seems, that they are around. But I want a white, manual with all the goodies!
Seems they are not shipped that way, have been waiting few weeks. Dealer says few months, I called dealers in my surrounding states ohio etc they have not even seen one yet still too early they said. I was gonna fly to florida and they didnt have any?? The first batch came and went. It it sold to kids on a budget, I just think its cute and I trade cars every year! ALWAYS TOYOTA!. been in them all love them all.. would like to drive this while its still summer... lol

As mentioned many times in other threads, it's true that the cars are not shipped in that configuration. Most buyers that want power options also want automatics.

You have to do an allocation order at a dealer. Find a white stripped down 5spd coming in on the boat soon and put a $500 REFUNDABLE deposit down. You can then do an allocation order to change the configuration of the rest of the car, adding everything you want on it. Standard time is 2-6 weeks for this, assuming you can find the right car scheduled for manufacture and delivery. Custom factory orders are 10-12 weeks.

For other people who have not ordered yet who might be following, I would contact the Fleet Manager and NOT the sales force for this. The money you pay in sales commission is for the salesman's time to sell you on options. If you already know everything you want, there's no point dealing with floor salespeople. And Fleet Managers are much more adept at finding out what cars are coming down the pike from Japan anyway.

FRED, if you are still looking, the second Yaris Liftback we ordered has just arrived. It is in Northern New Jersey, and has Automatic / Convience Package / Cold Weather Package / Floor Mats / Meteroite Metallic - $13,360

I know it isn't exactly what you are looking for, but before I tell them to "let it go," figured id give you the heads up.

Long story shot, we bought the Polar White one for my commuter, but had the same exact liftback on order in another color, the Meterorite color.

Im guessing you dont want it, so Ill call an tell them.

Guys...please get your Yaris already. I feel so lonely. I haven't seen any other Yaris on the road in Jersey since I got mine a little over a month ago.

Had mine for little over a week already, and I use it to commute from South Jersey, to Linden New Jersey.. So far, have only seen one Yaris, but it was a sedan.

I saw a red Liftback in Cherry Hill last week, plus one in Oxford Valley (PA) this weekend (blazing blue just like mine, hehehe)

Didn't get close enough to see if they were auto or 5 speed though.

Fred, I just dropped my salesmen a line, asking if he has anything close to what your looking for.

How flexable are you on your options/colors?
