Got a quote on a 2012 Yaris L 3-door (5-spd manual) - Toyota Yaris Forums

nookandcrannycar · 08-26-2012, 09:13 PM

I just searched (on the internet -for the heck of it) the 5 dealerships North of I-10 that first came to mind to see if they had any 5-speed Manual Yaris SE specimens. Yes? No?...No..The total = zero. However, I did make an unexpected discovery. These 5 dealerships have a total of 16 New 2012 Yaris L 3-Door 5-speed manuals for sale. Gullo Toyota 2 Black ones and 1 Lagoon Blue Mica. Fred Haas Toyota World has 2 Black ones and 1 Classic Silver. Fred Haas Toyota Country has 1 Black and 1 Classic Silver. Joe Meyers Toyota has 2 Black ones, 1 Classic Silver, 1 Absolutely Red, and 1 White (like Tooter's). Tejas Toyota has 2 black ones and 1 Lagoon Blue Mica (same selection (not same cars) that Gullo has).

I find it curious that there are this many just in one part of one metro, given how hard they have been to find in the past. I wonder if it has something to do with the end of the model year? Or if these somehow might not be selling in other areas, but do sell well here so were available for dealer trade. I also wonder why so many of them are Black Sand Pearl, as I would think the further south one goes in the U.S. the fewer Black cars (and more White cars) would be sold due to the heat during the Summer.
