No doubt. Toyota geared up to make the Yaris when gas hit $4 a gallon and then watched sales plummet due to a double whammy of rotten economy and lowered fuel prices. Last I heard, the sales had dropped something like 55% meaning dealerships have months worth of these cars and are still getting the newer models.

Some overlap is bound to happen.

My dealer all but begged me to buy one, but I'm glad I did.

My 1st dealer begged me to buy any thing on the lot but what I really wanted... After my last anemic automatic, I refused to buy another auto. I wanted a black MT Yaris with no frills to keep the cost down. After hearing how the MT was described as "peppy" and the auto was described as "scary to drive onto highways" I wouldn't settle for any thing else. He tried so hard to find what I wanted and tried so hard to get me to buy any thing else when he couldn't find it... I called another dealer and he had exactly what I wanted coming on the boat and I am so happy I didn't settle
