"   Based on what you stated, you should not get a Prius, but you should get a LX Accord or Special Editon Accord instead. They are much less expensive to purchase than even the base Prius. If TCO is one of your key criteria, which it appears to be, then the Prius will not pay off!   Your "better car" will end up costing you a lot more!

Replying to: looking4prius (Nov 18, 2005 10:26 am) Ok, did some looking and some comparing. My Honda dealer was selling Accord EX (non-hybrid) at $30k, LX at $25k. Other Honda dealers have quoted me similar prices. Granted, the Accord has more room. Still, the price would be a wash. So I will be going with the Prius, if only to have a different model/make of car for a change!

Replying to: looking4prius (Nov 18, 2005 10:37 am) Accords are pricey in your neck of the woods! EX I4 Accords sticker for much less than $30k. With that kind of gouging, the Prius would make sense unless you stretch your search beyond the Prius and Accord.

Replying to: looking4prius (Nov 18, 2005 10:37 am) My Honda dealer was selling Accord EX (non-hybrid) at $30k   That does seem a bit stiff. The 2006 leather NAV version in San Diego, a known Honda gouging location, is right at $26k. By comparison the 2005 pkg 6 Prius is $28,629 locally. The 2006 Prius with leather is going to be a bit more. I would think it would be easier to find an Accord than a Prius also. Good luck in your quest.

Replying to: gagrice (Nov 18, 2005 4:35 pm) Anyone looking for an 06 Prius should opt out and buy the leather aftermarket. Don't forget the nice juicy tax credit too. 28k turns into 25k at the blink of an eye. Gotta love it!!! Replies to this message: calidave (Nov 25, 2005 1:59 pm) falconone (Nov 26, 2005 7:40 am)

Replying to: calidave (Nov 25, 2005 1:59 pm) Leather is standard.
