Please log in for more thread options Well, I secured one from, none other than, Toyota of Hollywood, right on
Hollywood Blvd!! Whoo-hoo!
1st Toyota dealership in the country, opened in 1957.
Anyhoo, Touring Package #6, Silver Pine, can't wait. Should have it in
about 2 weeks. Being transported by national company.
Plus, I don't know where you read the Touring model isn't desirable,
Consumer Reports gives it an 80 rating (out of 100) and the base model a 68.
I'll take the Touring.
And yes, I live in Elm Grove, WI. :)
