Yeah, we've been having troubles too with package 3. In California, the best deal we could come up with was:
 
Invoice Price $24,251.00
All Weather Mats 103.00
Sales Tax 1,952.72
DMV Charges 225.00
Total Other Fees 111.75
Less: Rebate -1,000.00
Total Price $25,643,47
 
Considering some of the deals we've been seeing with package #5 and #6... this seemed way overpriced to us. But none of the dealerships in norcal would budge for a package 3.

Let me know if I am missing something, but based on what Robynn posted, why not pay $500 more and get a package #5 at Santa Cruz, which includes package 3, HID headlights and Navi.

I paid $22,000 after $500 rebate + DMV + Document Fee + NY Tax=$24,2**.**. I forgot the exact amount. I think that Package3 is enough for me. The dealer gave me $24,000 (after $500.00) for Package 5. I REALLY do not want to pay more $2000.00 to get package5 because I do not need HID and Navigator. If money is not issue for you, you could get Package6, Right? Good luck for everyone.

Hi everyone,
 
I hope everyone had a great weekend shopping for your ultimate Prius. I decided to bring my business to the locals so bought mine yesterday in Los Angeles ($500 rebate and not $1000 for the bay area)
 
I got Package 5 with some preferred accessories (wheel locks, rear bumper applique, floor mat, cargo mats, cargo net and first aid kit) for $23,850 + taxes & licenses. I am really happy with the Navsys because I fed up with my portable one. I took my red Prius around town and put 150 miles on it, the MPG is 42 woohoo...
 
I did also get the extended warranty for 7 years, 75,000 miles, $0 rebate for $1400
 
I decided not to go with package 6 because it was asked at $24,710 and I didn't get to see the car. Other dealers in Southern California that I visited and talked to, mentioned that Package 6 with Standard is not available (?!) I was not sure if that was true but I rather spend my 1K for the extended warranty than sitting on leather.
 
Enjoy your Prius.

Yes, thank you! I checked around last night but it was still after the fact.
So I've found out that within 3 days, come back to the dealer and re-do the paperworks with any financial manager to cancel the extended warranty, or call Toyota Financial within 30 days.
 
 
 
++++
Toyota ExtraCare plans can be cancelled within 30 days of purchase for a full refund...less a $25.00 cancellation processing fee. And cancellations can be done either at the dealer, or by calling Toyota Financial directly at (800) 228-8559.

$22,000 for a package 3? That's a good deal. Can I ask the dealership you got it from? Currently, I'm looking for a package 2 and the prices quoted were higher than that.
 
Thank you.

Most of the dealer rejected to give me this reasonable price. Actually, the price is fair for this bad market. I suggested you to get the price locally first and wait until the end of the month then you go to the best price to deal with them. You could tell them this price you want to pay. If you could not match the price, please DO NOT waste your value time to call me. After I did this way, the dealer gave me this price.
If I were you, I will get package 3 because it is a lot of convenient and fun for driving. Most of the dealer have Prius with Package 3 more than Prius with Package 2. It is easy for you to get a good price from the dealer for Package 3. It is my opinion. Hopefully, it could help you. Good luck!
