So good news, bad news and good news.

Good news, is that i went into the dealership today to get them to match my financing of 5.4%@60 that i put in mid jan, to the new 3.9%@60 that they have on right now for Toyota Red Tag days.

Now the bad news, the Yaris with 6 disk CD changer, (standard on the RS) can not have the dealer installed iPod connector. It just doesn't work with the cd changer, the dealer said. So sadly, i longer have an iPod connector in my Yaris.

Good news, dealer said that he car was in transit, some where over the pacific ocean, and once the car hits vancouver, it gets put on a train, and 1 day later i have my NEW Yaris. EXCITING

lahal, thanks for the update, I was kind of figuring that they'd start shipping them around march 1st if march 17th is when some should be in show rooms.

I'm just hoping toyota is good at keeping to its timetable. Cause I want my yaris too.

LAHAL · 03-03-2006, 08:53 PM

ya I'm hoping they r good at keeping there timetable, but i work in the printing industry, and lately i've been having trouble getting paper in from vancouver, when its not stocked locally. U know what i mean, u live right under me in montana, and I'm in alberta, we've been getting lots of avalanche, and its delaying shipments. But hopefully everything will arrive in due time.

HEY! new to these boards and to the Yaris. I saw it on Toyota's site a few days ago and instantly knew i wanted it. I love the sedan, the sporty version. Hopefully I will be getting it this summer.

--Hey everyone wassup!!! pyratio here from Honolulu. Cool forum! I saw the Yaris for the first time this spring in Japan and I had to learn more about that cool little car. It looks like the Yaris is coming to the U.S. Yay! I currently own an 05 Mini Cooper S and maybe it's hatchback tiny car fever or something but I really like the yaris too. Dunno. Can't wait to test drive one later. Til then I'll live through y'all vicariously. Thanks for havin me here.

Welcome everyone! Hey LAHAL, can I ask which dealership you ordered from? I just ordered from Country Hills last week and was told the 3.9% red tag financing wasn't applicable to the '07s?!! Thanks.

LAHAL · 03-07-2006, 01:00 AM

Hey Mad Muchkin, Stampede Toyota, on 32 ave NE.

Guys they've been on showroom floors in Canada since October 17th. Not only did they get them earlier, but they can be configured with more stuff (and doors) than we will get.
Yaris replaces the Echo Hatch which U.S. also didn't see. The thinking is that since they don't get Scions, the Yaris fills that market segment instead.

Any idea when the yaris will really get to the usa. I've phoned several dealerships in the northwest and i get a different answer each time. Basically sounds like they don't really know anything.

I've gotten the same runaround. Third week/last week of March was last I heard, but they really had no clue.
