I have a feeling the dealer was BSing that 5-door is not coming for another 6 months :p
There probably was another dealer near that already has 5-door.

Darn.
I wish there is some kind of penalty for lying to the customers.
They should get fired

WTF? Anyone who goes into a dealership without doing a little homework first deserves what they get! A simple search or even a visit to Toyota's web site would have revealed that the 5-doors were being released in 2009.

With the Internet there really is no excuse for being ignorant on any major purchases. Heck, when I was out shopping for my Yaris, I knew more about car than all of the salesmen we talked to.

There is an old military saying that goes: "If you go in blind, don't be surprised when you are blindsided!"

Cheers! M2

That's true.
But whatever it is, it's still not right to lie to the customers.

Well here in PR the 5 door didnt come out till 2009, so...

mikenacarato · 03-18-2009, 12:42 AM

i was told at the dealer that the 3dr and 5dr are the same length, everything is the same on them minus the having more doors part

dvlnblkdrs · 03-18-2009, 12:57 AM

tk, they say that they wont fit due to the fact of the door hinges needing room, so the ends are a bit diff.. its possible, may need different qtr panels as the 5 doors seem to have shorter ones.. but yea, i agree that 3door is superior in room although essentially same car.. just set up a bit nicer imo..

I see. Thanks for clearing that up!

*tomato* · 03-18-2009, 12:58 AM

I would trade in, if you're really set on having these extra doors. Probably is easier, might even be cheaper.

dvlnblkdrs · 03-18-2009, 01:01 AM

yup, no prob..

Yar Is Word · 03-18-2009, 01:09 AM

Maybe an auto broker could help you.
Here are some in your area:

Also the cash rebate for a new Yaris went up this month. That should lessen your out-of-pocket expense.

eTiMaGo · 03-18-2009, 12:11 PM

what is maaaaaybe possible is making some rear-opening small doors like on the mazda RX-8...

but unless you have a very good engineer to do this, structural integrity will go out the window...

That's some conversion.

I keep looking at this thread waiting for someone to post pics of a Ford-'Freestyle'-doored Yaris.
