Well seems the F&*king Power Package with Manual is impossible in the States(Hatch)

Why not cut out all the garbage and tell them to order it from the factory just the way you want it. Then if they tell you you can't order it the way you want it, you can tell them they're full of crap and take your business to another dealership that actually wants it.

Car on the lot = you can haggle. Ordering from the factory = you pay more.

somewhat true. but you dont have to pay sticker. we paid 500 over invoice, not the greatest i know, but no other LB in SoCal has the color and options package that have. cant put a price tag on getting exactly what you want and avoiding buyer's remorse. buying a yaris without the PP, regretting it, and then trying to add the PP via aftermarket will just end up costing you more in the long run. wishing good luck to the OP...

Maybe, but will the little savings you might get be worth all the grief? I'd rather pay a couple hundred bucks more and know I'm going to get the EXACT car I want.

thats what I did in MARCH! - I've called in april and may asking for a progress report - salesman was always "out" - left messages and number NEVER got any call backs.

In May I DROVE UP there (30 miles away) - they blew me off - just said "we ordered it and have no progress to report"

Returned in late June to get my money (500 check down) back after NO SERVICE and NO RETURNING MY CALLS..................they said that the car is now "being built" at the factory in Japan and to wait maybe up to another 3- months.

the worst fucking service I've even delt with - I saved up the god-damned CASH for 18 months and can buy the thing in total up to 17k, and these jokers don;t even retrun my fucking phonecalls!

thats f'd up dude, if a salesman dared to question me about being an american b/c i wanted to drive standard id tell him to go suck a fat dick. seriously where do these salespeople get trained? luckily i got referred to my salesman from a coworker, he hooked me up. you can get the package, but certain regions get more than others and it has to be ordered from the factory. so you have to wait a while for it. most of these asshat salespeople want the sale done asap to meet their commision quotas so they push for you to take a scion, or tell you it doesnt exist. i hope you find what your looking for though. i have a 5sp hatch. didnt want the power package so it didnt matter to me.
