Yaris paint / finish looks poor - not holding up through the winter.

Exactly. Just live with it as it is if Toyota doesn't do anything. Can't be that bad. Every Yaris I see looks just fine. Even if the paint isn't perfect, it is still a car that will last you for many years. If anything, get it repainted after 8-10 years if you plan on running it into the ground. That way, you'll be replacing a much more damaged paint job by then and it would be more worth it. Although I'd look for a cheaper job for around $2K.
