4th...Understand that when a car is in demand (like the Prius) don't expect to see any discounts. You can avoid the "ADD ONS" in most cases. Prius cars are beginning to be abit more available so good luck. Last point (for now) Treat them the way you'd want to be treated. ====================== Good points. I'd like to add to it that you may want to purchase in an area where the Prius might not be that popular. For example, I bought at Toyota at Muskogee, OK for 26k package 6 and full mats (500-1000 under MSRP). The salesperson at the dealer was willing to go along with my offer and tag a car while coming to the US as long as I was willing to accept one of three of my favorite colors. The dealer is 40 miles from Tulsa and may turn over fewer cars there but there apparently are fewer buyers than in a bigger market too. Most people there are more likely interested in a 4WD pickup than a hatchback. regards,

Replying to: backy (Feb 28, 2005 6:51 pm)  MSRP (only). If per chance you still can grab this diamond in the rough....GO FOR IT. A Prius is a rare find these days. Culliganman(3 months to get mine)

Replying to: railroadjames (Feb 27, 2005 12:19 pm) Still have the Prius on order but have an article where someone got a better deal on a 2005 with more options than I have. So will have to wait and see what happens. Will be on this thread so will let you know. Mary Lou

Replying to: mtransue1 (Mar 03, 2005 12:04 pm) Prices seem to be a bit more flexable to some extent on the Prius. Shopping around is in your best interests. Keep in thouch here. I'm curious to see how you make out. (remember to be patient) Culliganman (Car buying is fun when you know the tools) |

My girlfriend was looking to test drive the Prius and wound up buying one yesterday. They only had one on the lot at Atlanta Toyota (website said they had 7 "in inventory"). It was a good experience overall but we were pushovers. Paid MSRP for Package 1 plus Toyoguard and others ($1617 total options). After steep taxes and a $600 processing fee it came out to be $25,360.09. We got a gouged a little, but the car was a good match for what she wanted (Salsa Red, good features but not all the bells and whistles).

When I ordered my Prius, it was back in November '04 & was told to expect it in 6 months. Now that Toyota has doubled production it will be easier to get them. Now my local Toyota dealer has 4 or more in stock all the time & with all types of package deals. Where i ordered my car from is still not in, but due in around April. However, the dealer has told me if they wanted to swap out vehicles with another dealer they can & get the one I or others want, it is easy to do, but they don't want too at this time. They are expecting to have the Prius sitting on all lots by December '05 with no waiting lists. I want to get mine in soon though, but they are having a problem with my trade in now, they are not going to give me as much as they said they would only a few weeks ago, for my 4Runner. We will have to see if the wait was worth it.
