Purple Yaris?!?

Driving through SE Portland yesterday I discovered this purple Yaris sedan. The funny thing is, it looked like a factory paint job! Anyone know any more about this?

That is definitely not a factory color in North America, but the paint job quality looks good. I believe there was a purple similar to the one in the photo that was offered in Japan and Asia.

Hmmm... maybe next time I am near I will see if I can get the owner to open the door so I can get the color code.

Maybe this was a Canada model that was brought down? It's LHD, so not a Japanese model.

I'm in Portland and have seen that car before! I bet it was custom painted for a business at one point. Perhaps Jobdango or something?

Yeah, that's what I am thinking, too. If I ever get the chance I am going to ask the owner to pop the door so I can check out the paint code... but I'll probably forget.

Go Portland!
