Thank you! I don't understand the lack of even the most basic of non-subtle colors. Would it be some abhorrent act of the auto gods if Toyota allowed us the opportunity to purchase a candy apple red, dark maroon, teal, cream or other vintage-inspired colors? Look at cars from the 50s - 70s; they cruised in two-tones, mint greens, racing yellows, tangerines and plum purples. We get blue, fifty shades of gray and one red.

Part of it is resale value. The basic colors I mentioned means an easier sell down the road and for more money. Selling a bright yellow or lime green used car is going to be a challenge.

Perhaps resale value has something to do with it, however, the Big Three and Fiat are all pushing lots of unique colors on their vehicles including some iconic ones like the Mustang, and they don't seem to have issues selling those. I feel that if Toyota looked beyond the entrenched demographic they have been selling to, they would see new buyers want options in color. No one has said the entire Yaris production line has to be bright and bold but some variations on the color spectrum would be so welcomed.

The 2015 rear lenses look much better. The back-up lights appear to be in the lower apron. Too bad the rear reflectors have been deleted. Nice to see the chrome garnish is now body colour.

The newly designed front end is growing on me. I never was a fan of the stunted bird beak on my 2012. That being said, I still prefer the "bubble" of the previous generation.
