you THINK that toyota would know how they're parts fit on all cars no matter where they've been ordered from, but the sad truth is most people don't modify their toyotas especially one that already comes with a wing on it...
hickman, give him a break...no need to stress over minutia just to prove you're right. bottom line is, he waiting a LONG time for his RS

Also, I don't know if Toyota should advertise a car, that they expect sales to be so low that it's not worth having them on lots. I really don't understand that concept at all. Waste of advertising, money and consumers time. Positive side to all of this is that I'll pick the car up on Wednesday, drive it home, put the new rims and tires on it, and maybe take my kids on a road trip. I'll get some pics and put them up if the weather is nice. |

barber, wtf, y wasn't i invited to this party!! lol, dnw man, u will get ure RS soon enough. i waited 3 months for mine and it finally came and i love it. the RS is hard to get and from what i understand its build for the person whom ordered it and is shipped from japan. the spoiler issue seems likes a copout. if you ordered it with the bigger spoiler then make sure its on there when u get the car. and on there properly too.
Just my 2 cents

The spoiler is something that the PARTS department screwed up on so they should pay to fix that. They can order a new rear hatch if it is that badly screwed up. As for when the vehicle is supposed to have come in, I have had that happen to me as a salesman and my customer was ticked. Nothing to control there. The computer says a certian date for assembly, freight, and when it should hit the ground.

The parts department ordered all of the parts, including the TRD stuff. The spoiler is a check-able option on the Toyota, it wasn't a special TRD part out sourced. It's called the Rally Spoiler on the official Toyota site, but is referred to as the TRD rally spoiler. The parts comes from a Toyota parts warehouse, not TRD USA, its an option like power window package, all season mats, or the shifter knob. Go to toyota.ca or toyota.com Click on the Yaris, click build it. Look at all the options you get to pick from, sport spoiler, and Rally spoiler are on there. I'm just glad when this is going to be over. I'll never use a dealer to get a car again, It's way easier and cheaper to import an older used car from Japan. |

By the way, I went to toyota.com and did the build your own feature. There is no option to add any kind of spoiler unless you buy the sport package which comes with the standard feature. So not all regions offer a spoiler much less an upgraded spoiler. Try it for yourself. My zip is 75965. Here is one of your quotes, "They called me back 20 minutes later and the TRD Rally Spoiler wont fit......" This is why I thought it was a TRD part which are aftermarket parts. Oh yea, today is the 20th.....Show us some pics of your new car! Last edited by b_hickman11; 02-20-2010 at 10:01 AM. |

FYI - If those new holes they drilled are anywhere close to the hatch weatherstripping, make sure you get a new hatch. Also look inside to make sure they didn't just repair the holes from the outside.
Sorry about your issues - my transaction was seamless but I also didn't have the dealer install or order anything, including the car. |

First time post, to his defense, the TRD exhaust is by Borla and Borla makes one of the sweetest sounding exhaust systems around. I was thinking of getting an Echo and could've for the love of me find the Borla exhaust for the Echo anymore or many other parts for that matter. Plus it's one less "warranty-voiding" item to worry about. "Oh your muffler was condensing inside and it caused water vapours to enter back into the engine with back pressure and that's why your pistons are seized". You know the dealer will come up with any excuse not to honour a warranty and aftermarket parts is the first good route to go. A TRD part installed by the dealer is warrantied.
