Hi everyone. Just a quick followup. The dealer couldn't find a new white 2012 Yaris L 2dr 5spd in our region, so I've got a brand spankin' new one coming in about four weeks, direct from the factory. I'll be paying cash and will drive out of the lot with 0 miles on the odometer. Pretty excited!

I'm happy for you, matti... you are going to love it!
I bought exactly the same 2012 white L model 2 door hatch 5 speed for cash ($16,600 out the door including 8.75% state sales tax) and couldn't be more pleased with it. I eagerly paid the going rate just to be able to get one at all! We sold our 19 year old Hyundai for $1,700 in one day which brought the cost down to $14,900.

Very cool. I'm glad you like your car so much. I'm sure I'll love my new one, as well. There's something about the Toyota white that really draws me in.

It's good you drove the auto, now the stick will feel more zippy. We always buy white cars because that color paint is especially durable and keeps the car cooler in hot weather.

good thing you held out for what you wanted. there were a few times in my past car buying history where i just settled for what was on the lot - that regret always happens to fall in shortly after

i was lucky enough to find a 2011 5-door, 5-speed in super white 75 miles away. 16 miles on the odo. worth the trip

Finding a 5-door 5-speed is like finding the last dodo bird.
