I bought a new 2009 package 2 prius back in October and the warranty is 36000 miles bumper to bumper. 100000 on the hybrid system. Then I also believe the drive train was warrantied for 60000 miles. I would think a used prius would carry any remaining warranty depending upon how many miles they put on it.

We just took delivery of our 2009 Prius with package # 2. The vehicle inquiry report had the same stuff as yours. It was very confusing so we said we don't care about all this mumbo Jumbo, we would like the car for this price. We were about $1200.00 apart so we agreed to split the difference. we got the car for $23000.00 plus taxes. We may have shaved $300 off that but we didn't feel like going through the hassle of driving 30 miles to the nearest other dealer and starting all over again.
Our advice is to forget all the charges they add on, just give them the lowest price you are willing to pay and deal from there. When we got the invoice all the numbers had been adjusted to the price.

I just went to carsdirect and put in the same options as krish (touring, package 6 & preferred- msrp 29,444). Came up with $26,641 plus tax, license and fees. That seems to be baseline. I would think most dealers can beat that.

Sorry to respond to my own posting. Keep in mind, in about 3-4 months, the redesigned 2010 Prius will be coming out. I would say target below invoice minus the rebate in Nor Cal or So Cal.

09 Prius STD + Pkg 5 at invoice by Robynn

After several dealers and phone calls, I finally got the invoice for the 09 prius with package 5 before the 500 rebate. I have not made my decision yet and would like to see if it's a good deal.
I was hoping to get 500 below invoice on top of the rebate. Any tips on how?
 
i'm in southern california.

Could you please tell me where to check the invoice prices for base model + different packages? I kept seeing you guys mentioning that here. And about the cash rebate, I am a little confused too. It seems the cash rebate is not all the same. I thought the cash rebate for Prius is 750, but why I also saw 1000, 500 here?

We are in Nevada. We had to go back to the dealer four times before we got that price.We didn't mess with all the salesmen. We found out the name of the sales manager and dealt directly with him. When we got the final contract the $23000 was nowhere to be seen. neither was the TDA, Dealer holdback and all that other junk. They juggled the figures to meet the agreed price. They did talk us into the extended warranty which we thought was okay because we plan to keep the car for a long time. They happened to have the color we wanted and there were eight other ones on the lot. If you have to be put on a waiting list then we are not sure if they would be willing to negotiate. The sales tax in Nevada is 7.75 which adds another almost $1800. We hear people on this forum talk about invoice but it is almost impossible to know exactly what the dealer has paid.We started off offering $22500 which they laughed at but it gave us a starting point.
                                       Good luck

Thanks - like your idea of going right to sales manager with an overall price, and yup, I agree it's near-impossible to know "what the dealer has paid."
 
Ain't car salesman/managers a hoot? Laughing at offers in a down down economy...makes me want to laugh right back.
