Yeah 300K+ miles is amazing!

Mos def wanna see some pics of your new (used) Yaris after you get it. Sounds like a good deal to me!

It'll just be a standard blue two door hatchback...no frills, not even power windows/locks. This has got to get me through graduate school :P

Sounds like mine. I got my car brand new back in July of 2006. It had something like 3 miles on it. I was looking for a Yaris but no one had them and so I settled for a Scion xA. I got to the dealer and it had been sold. I thanked them, turned around and started walking to the door. The sales manager stopped me and wanted to know if I would want "one of those new Yaris cars they just got in" almost an hour ago. I went to look at them and they had not even peeled the plastic off the paint yet. I had to wait like 20 min for them to take all the plastic off the interior and exterior, I took it for a test drive and fell in love. I BARELY got financed, and the car has never failed me. It also had no options on it at all. Not even a stereo, just a plastic plate with a Toyota logo on it. I had to wait for almost 6 months before Metra came out with a dash kit on it. Found the kit on eBay weeeeeeeks before any local car audio places could get them.

Anyway, I am sure you will love your Yaris. Especially if you got the manual. Its the little car that just wants you to love it.
