Don't pay MSRP for a prius. You can negotiate the price. I have gotten dealers to go as much as 1.3K under MSRP.
 
Yesterday, I went to Fairfield Toyota (near the Bay Area in CA)and negotiated it down to 23,775$ + tax..etc.
I decided to think about it and left.
 
So, today the salesperson "Tito" calls and tells me they can still do the deal. I was cautious because I thought they were just trying to pull me in to renegotiate. I told him I'd only go in if we could do the same deal as what we negotiated the night before. I called him back 30 min later just to confirm that the deal was done since the drive is about an hour from where I was.
 
So, when I get there, I knew something was up when Tito greeted us and was hiding behind the salesdesk for 10 minutes. He comes out and says I can only give it to you for MSRP. I was pissed and left promptly.
 
Horrible Experience. I don't like the fact that he blatantly lied twice to me over the phone. Would never go there again.

2009 Prius and recent pricing by amg61

Anyone getting the 2009 Prius in the northeast for anything less than MSRP? What are best prices recently including Touring Package #6.
   
Also, I see package #6 inlcudes Bluetooth capability, but is there an extra charge to actually have the bluetooth set-up? I saw an invoice from a friend with package #6 that also had a $299 Bluetooth Handsfree Phone System charge added on? Thanks.

700 Below INVOICE????
 
Really? Below MSRP I'd believe but below INVOICE...wow
 
I haven't seen anything close to invoice much less BELOW. I have an offer of 750 of MSRP on an 09 but that's the best I've seen...
 
Anybody else seeing pricing like this in California?
 
I'm doing trade-off's between other small gas savers...If the price were lower the Prius might be the right choice.

My original post was questioning Prius prices in the Northeast, not California. I am trying to get an idea about price competitiveness in the New York, New England area. Up until the last month or so, these have been selling at MSRP and higher, as much as 2000 above MSRP, but with the economy changing and the price of oil and gas coming down, I am seeing some inventory not selling as fast. Just wanted to hear if anyone is able to negotiate better on these cars in the Northeast, specifically with package #6.
Thanks.

This forum is a little hard to follow but I wasn't responding to you.
 
If you look at the heading on my post you'll see I was responding to "victorias1" post number 1697.

I got a quote for pkg. 6 grey 09 for $28,844 in NY (supposedly $1200 discount from MSRP) so sounds like your deal is pretty good by NY standards. I declined the offer and am waiting to see if they counter- esp. since gas came down from almost $5/gal to now $4.20 around here. Just got back from PA and paid $2.63/gal- ugh NY taxes!!
