I wouldn't answer any questions as to what your driving needs are. Just say you aren't sure and what are the options. |

Hello, I am an Ex-Car Salesman, so I have a lot of answers for your questions. One question I have you is whether anyone has leased a car (in SoCal) and had the rebate applied? My salesperson (inside opinion so far is that he is shooting my pretty straight) has told me that taking the .00151 lease rate eliminates teh rebate - one or the other. That was the case in most ccircumstances when I sold BMW. Take the good rate if you lease, take the money if you pay cash ... What have you heard? Thanks, J

I'm seeing $2000 factory cash splash-ads on some dealer-sites -- Santa Cruz Toyota, and Maita in Sacramento. Anyone know a) if this is just Cali or if it's nationwide? b) how it's working -- are dealers willing to knock it off MSRP or (invoice + holdback) c) if it's combine-able with the still-in-force $500-750-1000 customer cash rebate? d) if it's helping dealers *really* deal on prices? dogsonboard

| This week I had the oppertunity to get aquainted with the "new" 3rd Generation Prius in the Windy City. The new one is very similar to the 2nd Gen. Prius. There are subtle differences exterior wise but the big difference is mostly interior. The center console is much different and should prove popular to most folks. The dash layout is improved and all previous Prius owners ..get ready to relearn where all the gadgets are. The upscale (loaded) Prius finally has a sunroof although it looks awkward in the open position. Then there's the "solar panel" on the roof. Simply put, it looks cool. Door sills have lited "PRIUS" nameplates. There are subtle things like fancier Hdlites and taillites but overall again I say, not as much of styling changes as many fans were hoping for. Oh, some upperend models have extending steering wheel, better drivers seat adjusters, and, while your looking for cupholders that have been relocated, you can ponder the higher price that seems to be coming our way. No offering as of yet but I'm guessing starting price in the area of $25-$26K and loaded way over the $30 plus bracket. We'll see pretty soon. I'm guessing late spring. | |
