looking for a new SE manual transmission - Toyota Yaris Forums

Spoke with a dealer outside of Houston (Conroe) today. He said a manual has to be special ordered out of Japan as Gulf States doesn't order them normally. Approximately 4 month lead time.

Great that Gullo is willing to do that. OP given different info (and it sounded as though the OP was talking to lazy reps). There are so many Toyota dealerships in our metro. If I knew which ones the OP went to (and I didn't have personal experience with any of the dealerships) I'd probably avoid them.

One of the Dealerships here in Vegas seems to always have them in manual. I drive one currently and bought mine at the place in question.

^^^^^ Unfortunately, there are currently only 8 new ones for sale at dealers in the U.S. -- 2 in California, 3 in Arizona, 1 in Texas (and it's in Houston....too bad it wasn't here when the OP was looking) , 1 in Oregon, and 1 in Florida.
