@ nookandcrannycar.....My '05 xB automatic is averaging ....

Pure City: 26mpg
Pure Hwy: 33mpg
Mixed: 30mpg
Love the car. It has held-up awesome (I bought it new and now just hit 95,000 miles) and they are already somewhat of a "cult classic". Get one that has been taken care of if you can. And replace the rear shocks with '06 Toyota Echo shocks (I used "Monroe shocks" I believe) from a parts store....It will ride way better.

About low August Sales? Not a bit surprised since hardly any dealers bothered keeping any in stock. You could not find a Yaris inside 4 Toyota dealers in the area. So I am not surprised. Now if you wanted a Corolla or a Camry??...You had hundreds to choose from. I don't want no stinkin' Corolla or Camry...give me a cool little Toyota-made hatchback dang it''.

In the last week, I spotted one '15 L Coupe at one dealer and a '15 L Sedan at another. No sight of any LE's or SE's anywhere. I think I am going to trade my '13 LE for a '15 SE late Spring '15. I am beginning to like the look. It is more European looking now than before. The interior is nicer and the doors seem more solid. Guess it has to do with the new welds they added, sealing and other little bits to make it a touch more up-market. I am just not crazy about the orange rear turn signal lenses in the tail-light....That is going backwards in design. The "15 Yaris is now the only car sold in America that does not have clear turn signal lenses in the rear lights.
