You just said it in a nutshell. That's what it looks like on the Toyota site, too. However, you still can't "build" anything but the L with the manual.

Honestly, I think if I were to buy a '12 Yaris, I'd probably opt for the SE. I usually go bargain basement on the models, since I typically get rid of the OE suspension, but I like the appearence package as well as the interior, not to mention the tighter steering int he SE.

Having driven none of them yet, what do you think?
