Reading this again and thinking about this part more...

"Toyota, which last week had been forced to recall 2.3 million vehicles spread across eight of its models due to problems with a sticking accelerator, announced Tuesday night that it would stop selling those vehicles for an indeterminate period as it scrambles to find a solution.

The models affected include the company's three best sellers in the U.S. -- the Camry, Corolla and Rav4 SUV, which between them accounted for more than half of the Toyota brand's U.S. sales in 2009. Five North American plants will halt production of these vehicles."

... makes me wonder whether dealers will feel more motivated to negotiate on the prices of the other models they can still sell in the meantime, such as the Yaris, in order to help out sales numbers overall.
