I eventually cancelled that deal as I decided I preferred the upgraded trim of the BRZ Sport Tech.. again the dealer didn't want the Yaris..

I don't get it in these days of $1.25+/L for gas... but in the end I am keeping the yaris for winter duty and perhaps my nephew when he finally hits 16 in in another 3-4 years.

Had an echo 3dr before the current Yaris 3dr and they have been great for me. They are my first recomendation to anyone looking for decent, reliable cheap transportation and with a few upgrades a great fun car.

What country are you in? I've never heard of a situation (in the US) where a dealer refuses a trade in. A dealer will take anything, even complete trash. They may not give you much, but they'll take it.

I have yet to see a single FRS or BRZ in the heavily populated northeast.

An odd analogy since most people don't know how to use Photoshop and computers don't come with Photoshop preloaded. It costs $700 (legitimately).

i've had a couple dealers laughingly turn down my 1992 civic with 400 000 miles, but i expect that reaction and it's mostly a joke that i try to trade it.
