I did do it all over. Totaled a 2008 Polar White LB base model. Just picked up a 2009 Black LB base model yesterday. It's good to be back in a Yaris.

I'd stick with my meteor metallic. It stands out just enough from plain-jane silver for me to love it. Plus it hides dirt remarkably well which is good for me (see:lazy).

Now if the US was cool in terms of color options like everywhere else is, then I would have gone with the Copper Orange or the JDM Green. I mean we get no cool colors (though now we have Yellow Jolt). Japan even has a light pink one for the ladies lol.
bring it on !!!

I would have chosen JDM green color if it is available here, other than that I am satisfied with my Copper Orange Mica.

Isn't there a baby blue colored Yaris sold overseas? That would be the only color I'd like more than what I have.

we saw two 2 door Liftbacks in CARMINE RED yesterday on TOYO dealers lot with power package and automatic tranny , the other was 5 speed manual . Gotta say that color does justice for the 2 door L.B. , very sporty looking . Like the interior better for the '09s as well . Fabric for seats and the shifting lever for the manual is better . Not the rubber , which attracts and traps dust like a magnet . Really got the itch to trade in the '08 BLAZING BLUE 5 speed manual in for the 2 door '09 CARMINE RED automatic .

I have the Carmine Red '09 2-door LB, it is a great color!! I would maybe go for one of the blue shades like I wanted originally, but the Carmine Red is just so fantastic.

There is here, or very close to it.


When I went to the dealers they had 4 colors, white, dark grey (color i got), baby blue, and black.

They also had red, and some weird shade of silver..but it wouldve been a 3month wait.

This is true.

I went with smexy Absolutely Red, and I'd do it all over again. Though white reminds me of Eve from Wall-E. <3

Red because those nasty hummers can't get out of their own way, so I wanted to be sure my car was SEEN so there's less of a chance of them plowing me off the road, and me having to kick their @$$.

I'm surprised they haven't made a yellow Yaris... I think it'd suit the car.

Any color at all? Pink...or Magenta... <3

I wish we had our pick. I remember when I bought mine. I was like "I want black with power windows and this and that and this and..." and then they said "Its silver w/ power nothing or a 6 month wait." I almost passed on my darling Yaris!

FYI... all of the '09 colors in the US can be seen here. Looks like the sedan has a baby-bluish option, and the 3-door has a yellow option.

Well then, it looks like they thought so too. Now maybe my friend will decide to get one once she graduates from college. She loves the car, but is set on having a yellow car.

When I purchased my car last summer, I only had the choice of white, red and blue for the 3dr, manual yaris. I went with red, though would have loved the black or caramel red.

Mine is silver streak mica. I wanted the flint mica, but it wasn't available anywhere near me. I would love to have that apple green that I've seen here on the forum, but I understand it's not available in the US.

My last car was silver also, and one thing I do like is the fact that it doesn't show dirt. Also, if I ever decide to add any other colors (pinstriping, etc., though I haven't seen a pinstriped Yaris yet that I like) the silver is a good neutral base.
