Bought Yaris 2000

[MadMax]

But the big question is, why is Gus' car in Psych a five-door Canadian Echo, as we didn't get the five-door Yaris in the US until this year (2009)??

Well, the answer is that even though the show is set in Santa Barbara, California; it is actually filmed in White Rock, British Columbia, Canada! The show also incorporates Vancouver and various locations around the Lower Mainland of British Columbia as a backdrop.

But you'd think they'd at least use a car that was available in the States!
