    FIFTY BUCK?! :blink: :blink: :blink:
    I wasn't even looking for one. I just stumbled across it by chance on ebay for five and change.

    That's a great price! As far as others finding them for as much as $50 on eBay, all I can say is I don't make this stuff up, I just pass it on. I'm more than satisfied with my $9.95 price from the dealership in California that I called and ordered 3 from the other day.

    I just meant I can't believe someone bid that high?!

    I've owned my 2006 since August 12 and absolutely love everything about it. But I can't honestly say I love it enough to lose my mind and senses over a keychain. When I saw a posting about the dealership in CA, I called, oredered the last 3 they had in stock, and am completely satisfied with my find and purchase. The one you found on eBay looks to be in perfect condition. Had I seen that lisiting I probably would have bid on that too.

    Continue to enjoy your mpg as much as I do!

    I've called Northridge Toyota and Carrie confirmed that they are backordered. May take a month, more or less, to get them.

    Shockingly enough she offered to EMAIL US once she gets them. What a nice lady. To get on her good graces, email her at [email protected] and she will email you upon arrival.

    And stop calling her... she mentioned being bombarded with calls about this keychain. :)

    Thanks! I called and ordered two (one for me and one for my wife).

    I love this car!

    Did you call and ask for Carrie? She put some aside for everyone that emailed her. I called previously and was told they were out of stock but a few days later I called and specifically asked for Carrie and she said she had some put aside for the people on her email list.

    Anyone got a Toyota part# for the keychain? If so, please post. I'd like to give my local Toy parts guy a chance with this as the last few things I've asked him to look up turned up dead-end. I tried getting a block heater and the cool leather pouch (for the manuals) from him and he couldn't find either one. Perhaps he can get one of these for me.

    It's possible. She said she had 3 left whenever I last posted so if PandA bought two and someone else bought one, then it'll be out of stock.

    <_< Today - Nov 10 - 2:20 PM - I see TWO on eBay at ±$16 + $5 shipping.

    They appear to be bronze colored. I thought the ORIGINALS were Chrome with a Blue wavy stripe.

    Those are chrome. It looks to me like the sellers dont know how to work the white balance on their cameras or they are just lazy.
