Hey,

I just saw two Yaris today on 49th Ave going west in Vancouver. One was a white RS, the other was blue (didn't see if there was an RS badge or not cause I was trying to fish out my phone to take a photo). Unfortunately, I didn't catch a good photo as I was going the opposite direction.

I'm sure they will be seen in BC many times before other markets, since they land there first before getting put on trains etc. to deliver to the dealerships...

Yeah but if I recall correctly, they had no plates. Also, it's not out yet is it? I haven't seen one in the grounds where Toyota keeps their shipped cars (before sending them off to dealerships).

I'm supposed to take delivery of mine October 10th in Ontario, in 1 week, so I would not be surprised if dealers are already starting to get them in BC...And many travelling from where they reach port in BC to wherever they get put onto trains for the cross-Canada delivery...I'm sure the dealers are going start to get demos to familiarize themselves with the car, and for media testing any time now, until the official launch...

My wife has reserved a Yaris but the salesman cannot tell her when her car will arrive in Vancouver, BC. He could only indicate he would be getting his first few cars around Oct 10.

Yeah but this was on the road, it wasn't on a transport truck

swng, according to a salesman I talked to today at OpenRoad Toyota, the Yarises are already here in Vancouver, they're sitting in the lot opposite SilverCity.

Saw two on the way to work this morning, a red one and a bayou blue one. One the road and with plates; the driver of the blue one had a big grin on his face!
