If you are a serious buyer, I would e-mail and/or phone every dealer from Ashland to Seattle [get the details from the Toyota website] and tell them what you are looking for and what you'll pay. If the car you want is anywhere in the NW, you'll find out soon enough.
 
I haven't reached that stage, so I have no personal info on what the NW region is getting by way of option choices. Toyota has been known to restrict option pkgs in the past, so nothing would surprise me.
 
Some dealer websites offer the chance to search their new car inventories online - take it with some salt [these cars are sometimes already sold to somebody], but that is another way to check up on what's out there.

NW Availability by jrct9454

A quick and very dirty search of WA and OR dealers shows plenty of availability, and many cars priced below the levels of pkg 4 or above. How many of these cars are actually on the lot and available for sale is another question - again, a serious buyer just needs to make some phone calls and/or e-mail inquiries. Never, ever, take the word of one dealer for anything in this business....

A few hours on the phone and Internet can save you hundreds and maybe thousands of dollars. For example I priced a new Jetta TDI Wagon at a dealer in Portland last week. They sell for $200 over invoice. A dealer across the river in Vancouver wants $995 over MSRP for the very same vehicle. You gotta shop around!

...that would be Dick Hannah - they are laughable in their sales practices. They honestly seem to think that their customers are too stupid to know what competition means. Whatever...

I just started looking in earnest for Pruis. Interested in pkg #4 - purchase below or at MSRP. Today dealer wanted "$4,000 premium" for car due to demand. Any out there within 150 miles of Dayton, OH?

This evening we are headed to dealer(s) in Washington, D.C., area looking (possibly) to "close" on Pkg# 4
One dealer said they had ten on the weekend, now maybe one or two (as of this afternoon). There was a red, today a silver, at another dealer a blue, etc. I get off work in forty minutes and then we go.

We bought our 2005 package 4 Prius from Alan Nott Toyota/Honda in Lima, OH, back in November. Price was MSRP. They were very helpful and easy to work with. Lima is just a bit of a drive up the road from Dayton. They only had a waiting list of 3 or 4 people back then, and no one wanted this color (red). So my name went on it after making just one phone call (and a $500 deposit) to them.
Larry (of Michigan).

So Calif #6 under MSRP by bshef

Bought a White #6 for $700 under the $26,742 MSRP on Easter Sunday. I would have preferred a #4 because I'm not too fond of the JBL Stereo. I've never seen a #4 available for sale at any So Calif Dealership.....
