How Did You Buy Your '12 Yaris?

While researching an economical two-door car with a hatch for over a year, it was down to the wire between a Yaris and a Fiat 500. While I liked the 500, I was unsure about the long-term reliability of a Fiat car.

I had some spare time one day and decided to drop by a local and convenient Toyota dealer. There was a Scion IQ and a Yaris sitting side by side. I sat in both. I could not fit comfortably in the IQ (my height), but I fit great in the Yaris. After a test drive, I decided I actually liked the Yaris, so I picked it up. Plus, since it was a 2012 model with 2013 in the showroom, I got a very nice discount. I cannot understand why someone had not snagged this 2012 model earlier. Go figure.
