You'll really have to drive both vehicles when they are out in early summer because there is likely to be a HUGE difference in price between the Insight and the 2010 Prius. Toyota is talking about holding the current 2009 Prius in production for some period and stripping it down somewhat so that it's in competition with the new Insight.
 
In early reports the Insight will be smaller and not as refined as the Gen 2 Prius. Thus it will not be as quick, powerful, fuel efficient and roomy as the Gen 3 Prius. So there's going to be a significant price difference. However if the 2009's continue in production and can be had at $20K or less then they are a direct competitor in that buying demographic.

Buying Extended Warranty by avaloncruiser

Hubby just purchased a 09 Prius and they wanted 2K for the Elite Extended warranty. I seem to remember seeing where you could purchase this warranty cheaper through a couple of dealers in the mid-west but I can't seem to find that post now....it has been over a year and I can't find in with a search. Seems folks were getting warranties for 1/2 the price that their local dealers were quoting. Anyone know where I can find a better deal?

I've heard of those much-cheaper warranties, too. Try Googling "Cheap Toyota warranties" or something to that effect.
