Replying to: ohmygosh (Dec 23, 2008 1:38 pm) 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?

I was offered a 2009 Yaris 4 door sedan with power package for 14,265 plus tax etc. Final will come to 15955.o2. Supposedly MSRP or sticker is 16,135. What do you think. Someone else offered 14,000 but not sure if they will come through |

| 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. | |

Replying to: howard_24 (Jun 08, 2009 12:00 pm) 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? |

Replying to: howard_24 (Jun 08, 2009 12:00 pm) 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. |

SHORT VERSION: On May 31st 2009 at Sandy Spring Toyota in Atlanta, I paid a total of $11,666 for a 2009 4-door sedan with auto tranny (MSRP 13,765) that also had the $1,500 power package, the $110 integrated front fog lamps, the groovy $169 Yaris floor mats, and $230 (aftermarket) keyless entry, the $599 tag, title and doc fees, $750 destination charges, and yes the $699 Toyo Interior/exterior Protection Package (grrrr! but because of the "loss leader" advertised price of $11,888 for the vehicle, I could not get them to come off of it) and finally $836 in sales tax, for a total "drive out the door" total of $13,800 comprised of: 11,666 car, including all options and destination charges 599 tag title and document fees 699 Toyo plus protection package 836 sales tax 13,800 TOTAL Of course I did not get to choose a color at this price (it has a Flint Mica exterior with charcoal fabric upgraded interior) but I couldn't care much less--I feel that since I got them to throw in the aftermarket keyless entry and also got them to come $222 off the advertised price from 11,888 to 11,666 that I got a very good deal on a new Yaris. Did I? You tell me. It was waaaay below retail and even way below invoice, but not sure if I could have paid even less. here is the total MSRP for my model: 13,765 Base 4-door Automatic 1,500 Power package (door locks, windows, cruise, etc) 230 Remote keyless entry 169 Carpet floor mats 110 Integrated front fog lamps 699 Toya Plus Protection package (ding removal, fabric stain removal, etc) 750 Destination charge 599 Tag, title, documentation 836 Sales tax $18,658 TOTAL so i figured maybe a driveout price of $13,800 was better than average. Maybe not! Depending on the feedback here, I will tell you the LOOOOONG VERSION of the purchase experience if you demand to hear it. All I will say is that if you are not willing to walk away, you cannot get the best price on a car. Period. Should I have walked away more than I did or was this a rock-bottom price? I know I got it way below invoice, but I also know that: 1) even the Edmunds TMV price is $500 BELOW the invoice price, and 2) the invoice price on a car is not really the invoice price at all when you consider the rebates, the holdbacks, and other dealer incentives that I don't have a mommy-freaking clue about. FYI, the $1,000 dealer rebate that ended June 1 on the 09 Yaris was of course retained by the dealer. So far, I am very happy. I rented a Yaris a few weeks ago and LOVED it. Decided to see if I could get one at a low enough price to make buying a new car cost-effective for my budget (I often buy used vehicles). I think after a week that I can still feel good about the purchase price, but you tell me. Thanks for any feedback--any and all is welcome.

Replying to: scott0217 (Jun 08, 2009 4:25 pm) Congrats on a great deal on a great car! I also have a flint mica 09 Yaris base sedan with the power package, factory remote keyless, the nice Yaris floor mats, and the bumper protection thing. The MSRP on my car, including destination, was $16,514.00. I did not get anywhere near the deal that you did. I would love the hear the "long version" of your purchase story. Tom
