Can I add my OWN power window/mirror ?

When I bought my new 2007 Yaris 3 door liftback, I required the dealer to get me a Yaris with automatic, power windows, power mirrors and winter package. The dealer did not stock the Yaris with power windows and power mirrors. The dealer had just one Yaris liftback in stock. The dealer told me that Toyota views the average customer who buys a Yaris wants the lowest cost vehicle. The power options add additional costs that most people buying a economy vehicle do not want to pay for. The options I required the dealer to get for my Yaris added $6,000 to the price of the Yaris. My guess is that only the largest Toyota dealers stock the Yaris with power windows and power mirrors. It took the local Toyota dealer a day to get a Yaris from a dealer 150 miles away with the options I wanted, in Meteoritic Metallic.

A year later the local dealer expanded the buildings to add a seperate Scion waiting area. It could be that the local dealer was trying to reduce stock to create a area for construction equipment.
