Buying a Yaris, probably today.... - Toyota Yaris Forums

I don't know about the US but I know that in Canada here a new 2012 Yaris is being advertised on Toyota's website as being $13,500. (Correction ... the ALL IN price with taxes etc is $16,475)

The prices that you have listed for the used Yaris' seem to me to be very high. It doesn't appear that the cars you have listed have a lot of options (like power windows / locks etc). They seem to be the lower end models.

Since the Cash for Clunkers a few years ago, used car prices have been sky high. If you can afford a few thousand more, its smarter to buy the new car than a used. But you are right they are high.

I bought my 2007 3 Dr RS LB for $4500 (yes I paid like I stole it). Somehow paying 12 grand for a 2007 model year that doesn't even have a lot of the goodies just seems to be high. Really you are buying a 5 year old car (even if it is a Toyota).

Personally if I was paying that much money ... I would seriously consider buying new, that way you are not buying someone else's problems.

However I am not familiar with prices in the US, so disregard if I am really thinking craziness.

Happy travels.

I didn't buy a Yaris today. I walked 5 miles to apply for a job and I got it. I just moved to NJ and my job fell through. I picked up this one, 11 an hour but it is fun and I get free waterpark tickets, free mountain biking (sick downhill trecks) and free snowboarding....perfect for working and going to college in the fall.

Yeah, the ones I listed are crank windows. It is such a tiny car that I don't mind. I can't find a damn thing cheaper than the ones I listed (unless a ton of miles).

07462 is my zip if anyone sees a kiler deal.
