FIT is GO , Yaris is GOne : '13 FIT base w/ 5 speed auto - Toyota Yaris Forums

Hershey · 04-12-2014, 12:30 AM

Couldn't resist . Got it for $15,574 ( includes destination charge ) before trade , taxes , fees , etc.. It would of been $17,386 with destination , 4 floor mats , cargo cover and 4 mud guards . I'll pop in every now and then to liven things up

. We already miss the sedan for the F.E. , ride , roominess and the sporty looks in Barcelona Red

. Coming home we hit a few red lights , many hills , rain covered roads , 2 people and mid 40s . Here are some pictures .

It's a great car. If i didn't invest so much in my 12 SE i would get this car too! Congrats on the car!

Hershey · 04-12-2014, 11:22 AM

Thanks .

The smarter 1/2 noticed that the 1st post is correct at $15,574 . So , oops again . $17,015 - $750 ( FLEX rebate ) = $16.265 - $300 ( Dealer Discount ) = $15,965 . We got the floor mats ( 4 @ $101 ) , mudguards ( 4 @ $124 ) and Cargo Cover ( $166 ) at no cost . So an additional saving of $391 , thus $15,965 - $391 = $15,574 before taxes , fees , etc..

They still had new 2013's left over? Wow. Assuming it's new since you mentioned destination charge. 2014's have been out for a while which is why I'm surprised. And of course the all new 2015 is right around the corner.

There actually is no 2014 model, unless you count the Fit EV.

Hershey · 04-12-2014, 02:42 PM

Yes , some dealers have close to 20 '13s on their lots . That could help get a better deal . As stated above , there is no '14 , skipped to '15 for newly designed FIT .

Kal-El · 04-12-2014, 03:28 PM

My bad. I didn't know they skipped '14. Kinda surprised they did that since the 2nd gen Fit is still very competitive. And it's not like they launched the '15 Fit super early.

yougojay · 04-12-2014, 03:41 PM

So are you Yaris-Free now??

Congrats! We looked at the Fit...didn't like it at all.
Looks too much like a mini-van & really wanted to finally get a Toyota. Completely happy with the Yaris purchase.

The "new" 2015 Fit was released (Sept 2013) in Japan as the 2014 model.

Ah yes, I forgot about that. They get everything before us.

Hershey · 04-13-2014, 01:05 AM

The '13 is quieter than the '11 . Less engine noise when accelerating up hills ,etc.. The '11 only has engine immobilizer , we think the '13 also gets Security System , states it on the front driver side . Here's the results from driving it earlier .

Hershey · 04-22-2014, 12:37 AM

2nd tank of the '13 . Have to work harder to get the gas mileage of the sedan . Miss the big trunk . Was the workhorse .

nookandcrannycar · 04-22-2014, 01:58 AM

I forgot that you refill so far away from empty

. Great re the type of gauge the Fit has

. I don't know if your Fit or the current Yaris has a display for 'miles to empty' (I didn't read that section of the owner's manual of the rental I had)? On my next car, I imagine I'll have to move more toward what you do. I wish I could magically move the 2nd Gen's 'fuel gauge with the bars' to any future vehicle

. Thanks for posting this. The lighting looks as though it it is engineered to be as soft/easy/not promoting fatigue re human eyes as possible

.

Hershey · 04-22-2014, 11:49 AM

We try to get as close to empty as possible . That usually gives a closer calculated m.p.g. to the display . You can adjust the brightness .

So... what was the bottom line? How much was the actual total out the door cost including everything?

My neighbors have a Fit and really like it.

I had considered one, but they don't make a cheap base two door stick shift model.

Got the 0.9 % through Honda . Have to see if the other 1/2 wants to reveal the total amount financed. The payment is $200 .
