Incentive/price question for Prius buyers. by norskeyman
Apr 10, 2007 (8:34 pm)

Question for recent Prius buyers: Did anyone who bought a Prius in late March (or early April) receive BOTH the $2,000 discount incentive on option packages 5 or 6 AND the low cost Toyota financing (as low as 0%)? I'm wondering if there was a short period where buyers were able to take advantage of BOTH offers. Or, was it strictly one OR the other, based on timing? Norskeyman

So today I got a verbal agreement for a purchase of a package 6 including docs, tax, reg and tire charge for 25,845.
 
I think this is what I'm going to go with....though I trust in Carl. Should I pull the trigger?
 
If so, I'll confirm that this is a real deal and post here after driving the new baby home tomorrow.

Does that include 8.25% sales tax???? that's an amazing deal, if so. my best offer has been 25,728 but PLUS doc fee, tax, reg fee and tire fee.

So-Cal first time car buyer in love with the Prius...but clueless by 10538h

I went to Toyota of Hollywood to get a quote on a Prius. I guess I am geared to Prius package #2 with Leather Interiors as an added charge. It appears the MSRP (a new term I have just learned) was just north of $25,000 for this package with leather. I am uncertain about how much I should put down, etc...buy/lease? I was quoted trade-in (approx $2500) + $6000 down = 60 month financing at $383/month OR Trade + $2500 lease 36mnth/12k Miles/year with $350/month payment.
 
This all seems very high to me. HELP?!?!?

prius vs snow - can the prius use chains? by aprchan

Hi,
I'm thinking of getting a Prius and wonder if anyone has experience driving in snow conditions. The space between the tire and fender looks small, will the Prius accept chains? Anyone with experience driving in the Sierras, especially on US80, I'd like to hear about your trip!
Thanks!

Funny you should mention snow by acdii

So much for global warming! It is snowing in IL in April! This morning was my first jaunt in heavy, wet, slushy, icy snow, and it handled it quite well. If you are going to do a lot of driving in snow, you may want to investigate a cheap set of rims and snow tires to fit instead of chains, otherwise, it seemed to handle this snow quite well. I have heard of others in very icy conditions not being able to go anywhere do to the traction control shutting the engine down. Only time the TC kicked in for me was when stopping on ice.

Just to clarify... there are chain controls on the Sierra highways. Chains or 4WD and Mud and Snow tires can be required at any time. I've been driving a Subaru 4WD wagon for 13 years, and have never had to put on chains... so I'm fairly spoiled. Just wondering if anyone has ever put chains on a Prius.
-thanks

Hi,
FORGET MSRP.
We purchased 2--pkg#2 cars in late Feb. Paid $22K for each at different dealers. that is just below So. Cal INVOICE. Thats the # to use now.
On various boards since then I've seen all the way down to 21.5K reported by folks.
SOOOO pay 22K MAX, PLUS the leather, PLUS Tax/Lic/ Doc fee.
IF you would like the sales people I dealt with(both very good) send me an email.
Carl
