Definitely noticed this as well. Many members on here who bought new '08 and '09's are now hitting the 10 year mark and are looking for an upgrade. Many younger buyers looking to buy a used car and a reliable 10 year old yaris fits their budget and needs. This is the likely reason for the transition

Pretty much. I make over 3x what I made in 2008, so there's a lot more budget available for cars. I bought the Yaris in 08 because of the reliability, cost, and fuel economy. Now I've got enough cars that it doesn't really matter if one or two of them isn't working lol. The old 190D is insanely comfortable and the 2010 E350 is a lot sportier. The old D21 is just an old D21 but I love that little truck, drove it to work today actually.
