toyota all the way :D

i love corollas too. the levin is very sexy. but i absolutely LOVE my yaris the photos above dont do it any justice! its so gorgeous in real life :P

really? i thought the option for the safety pack was only available if you were getting the car brand new. once they make the car they put in the extra airbags.

nope. no safety pack. :( no extras either, he said he couldnt afford to give me any extras. so yeh yrx stock.

it already did about 10,686kms.

thanks! yep ill post pictures once the weather clears up :D

UPDATE! I went back and got the 06 YRX yesterday

$21,400 for the 08 yrs + my trade in wasnt very worth it to me. it was like giving the dealer my car for free <_< i didnt want to wait 1-3months for it to arrive either.

i managed to get the 06 yrx for $17,000 with no trade in at all. im very happy with my yrx. im so in love with it! im like totally paranoid on the road though, thinking some idiot is jsut going to hit in to me and drive off (happened with my old car ). or leaving it at the shopping car parks and it would get scratched or get a dent from someone opening their door and not caring its perfect for me although seeing the blind spots are HORRIBLE. i cant see them at all.

yeh we've signed the contract.

we've looked at new 07s and the guy at peter warren said $19000 (maybe) with my trade in.

im so confused! wish i got the yrx. lol.

i dont know when i get it. he said maybe a month, maybe 2 months, maybe even 3 months

i still think i coulda got more. feel so jipped. :(

that deal was from western toyota. i also went to peter warren and he said he couldnt beat it with all those extras. so thats when i said yes to the 21400 at wester toyota :(

thanks for the replies!

well i just got back from the dealer.

*drum rolls*

we got the 2008 YRS 5dr auto hatchback for $21,400 <_< he said he couldnt go any lower

so yeh $21, 400 driveway with:

metallic paint (silver lining)

floor mats

weather shields

mud guard

tinting

safety airbag package

i still feel i coulda got more bang for my buck. but i guess everybody feels that? always wanting more. or is it just me? lo

Yes that is the change over price. My trade in was a 1994 Ford Telstar TX5 Ghia thats in really bad condition (damaged by hit and run, paint peeling at the front, boot wont stay up, CD player doesnt down, doesnt shift gears properly....)

Hmmm so you think $19k drive away is too much?

Brand New 2007 YRS (5dr auto) for $19,000 (with trade in)

OR

Used 2006 YRX (3dr auto, 10,700kms) for $17,500 (this is an IF price, dealder wasnt sure if he could do it for that much. Thats the max I'd probably pay anyways)

I really like the look of the YRX. The bodykit and foglights and all. But I'm sure which is more worth to buy. Which has a higher reselling price? Which would you buy?

I'm a first car buyer and wouldn't know a good deal/price if it hit me in the face. I just stumbled upon this forum and thought I'd post to ask other peoples opinions. So thank you in advance to those who leaves a comment.
