minneapolis yaris dealers by firebreather1

i've gotton invoice minus 1000 rebate from all mpls dealers except walser (terrible one price policy there), and even under invoice when i've insisted. nikholm at burnsville toyota will refund dealer holdback giving $260 under invoice plus rebate on any model toyota car, not just yaris. i still dont know who to trust, had bad experience at walser. plus i have to decide whether to accept 14.9% 5 year financing because of a bankruptcy. they claim i can pay off loan early to save interest, but contract doesn't mention this, just says "no penalty for early payment". i dont want to pay 7000 in interest.

"No penalty for early payment" means you can pay off the loan early and save the remaining interest due.
 
What was your bad experience at Walser? I have dealt with them in the past (in particular with one of their most experienced reps, a "Master" sales rep) and always had a good experience, at least as far as the treatment I received from the people there. It appears from your comments that the "no haggle" kind of dealership is not for you. Walser is very up front about the fact that is how they do business, and in fact they highlight their "no haggle" policy in their ads. I guess they figure some folks like not having to negotiate, and know they will get the same price as anyone else who buys the same car from the dealership. If not, there are other Toyota dealers who will negotiate, as you have found.
 
Since you have to pay such a high interest rate, have you considered getting a lower-cost used car for now, to re-establish your credit and minimize your interest payments? Lots of good used cars out there now for around $8-10k.

Has anyone heard more on the issue of peeling paint?
 
I took my red 08 to dealer with same problem ohmygosh describes.
The are going to repaint but I am concerned that they seem to have no interest in finding cause. How common is peeling paint on yaris?

Wow, that's pretty crazy. Historically, Toyota has had problems with red paint for some reason, but I certainly wouldn't expect it on a modern car. No problems with our 08.

The backlog of unsold Yaris's is huge...like 180 days worth. Its a buyers market if there ever was one. So keep the lines of communitcation with the dealer open even if they reject your offer. They may have no other choice but to accept your offer.

I have a 2007 yaris here in canada. I have 77635km the check engine light came on and the abs brakes came on after. went to a toyota dealership they said it was a fuel filter or something like that, and it was going to cost me $1100. I didn't belive them so I went to a toyota specailist. He said it was a bad computer chip for the enviromental systems. Wouldn't affect the car in anyway. He said I might lose fuel economy I havn't seen that yet. He told me it would cost $130 to repair. Hell of alot better than 1100. As for the abs light dirty sensor. Get your car checked by a independent toyota specialist.

boy that sucks, and I can belive the "dealer" and the cost they quoted you.
 
I had a Chrysler T&C that had this dumb computer problem with the ABS, and even though the ABS was OK I couldn't get it past inspection due to the damned light bein g on for the ABS. I gave up and sold the thing AS IS.
 
I now have one of these Yaris also a 09, that came with the ABS, I would rather just do without them because of another lousy sensor that can go bad but it came with them standard now, no option to not have it. It won't be getting all the milage you have since its just a 2nd ride for the wife to fart around local in, but I hope I don't see this on this one.
 
It is under warranty for 3 years though, so we'll see, if yours is a 07, wouldn't it still be under warranty?

on another note,
 
 I don't much trust these dealers anymore than some local joe, with these things built to last, who knows what they will stoop to to generate business, I mean a good mech could always monkey around with something that would cause a failure hours or days after an oil change.
 
 And there would be pretty much no way to know unless you were involved in some under cover investigation show.
 
I had something along that line the last time I had my 05 corolla state inspected, I failed because of a Windshield wiper, it had a small tear on the very end of one lousy wiper, and the tear wasn't Visible to me before I took it in, but again I had no way of being 100%.positive either.
