Congratulations, Dad. As a fellow car-flipping addict, I know you're excited to get your new toy. Hopefully the deal wasn't too tough to swallow.

If it's not prying too much, what did your dealer give you for your Yaris?

My dealer (who is very honest) was musing about market conditions; the implication was "make me an offer" on in-stock cars.

Hope you enjoy your new car!

OK, Guys, so maybe "sex appeal" was the wrong term. I just wanted something a little sportier than a Yaris sedan, and I think a Corolla S fits that description.

The EPA MPG rating is only 2 MPG less for the Corolla vs the Yaris sedan, so I hope to be driving a little more stylish car without giving up a significant amount of fuel economy.

personally i think great pick! if i had the money for the car and for insurance on that i car i would have gotten the corolla S. only thing i would have done differently was i would have picked a more exciting colour, lol. out of all the blue and reds (even black and grey) i could never pick toyota stock dull silver. lol. JMO.

enjoy!

Yah those don't look half bad. I know you don't care about modding your car externally; but i saw a few of those with probably 18" or 19" wheels and they actually looked really good.
