Are the front doors shorter width wise with the 5 door version?

They are. The front doors on a 5 door are 41" long and 49" long on a 3 door. There's something about the shape of the rear window, that to me, makes a 3 door look sportier than a 5 door. But, having two kids myself, I would not give up the convenience of the 5 door.

I like the look of the 3dr model better. But I've come to miss having direct access to the backseat through a door (only owned 4dr sedans before). Oh well. Next time!

Yes- they are in proportion to a five foor configuration with basically the same vehicle length as the three door.

Yaris Unavailable.

I went to buy my Yaris today, and was told that it would take months for a white, 3 door, to make it to Canada. Thats just BS.
Then I was told, if I wanted a car before January, then I should take a silver car.
I hate when I can't get what I want.

Damn Toyota!

Sounds like bs. Go online and start looking, and also start calling dealers. I'd be shocked if someone can't find you what you want.

^^^^^ See, rningonfumes was under the same impression I was . Sounds like the 2010 Model Year was the first year the 5-door 5-speed manual was available. I'd imagine since that was the case, that it would have made sense to offer the 5-door 5-speed for the 2011 Model year as well. I believe though that the 3rd Gen (2012-2014) 5-door (except in SE trim) was never available with a manual in the U.S.
