I wanted a Prius....just didn't wanna pay $30,000 for it (cus that was the price of the only one on the lot).

I went with my 2009 Matrix....was $10,000 less, and gets decent gas mileage.

i got a package 3 for 23,000 (but i ordered mine directly - dealerships know they can get whatever price they want for a prius)

what is a package 3? and how do you order "directly"?

package 3 is the model with backup camera, bluetooth, 6 disc cd changer, and some other amentities. a package 6 for example would be a touring model - bigger wheels, leather option, different suspension and a bigger spoiler etc.

i ordered from toyota directly meaning i didnt buy a car off a lot or a person. the plant in japan makes it and ships it to a dealership, the prices on priuses are set by toyota, the price its set at is the price they sell the new cars at. if your dealership says otherwise for a brand new prius you ordered they are scamming you


oh oh ! hybrids and priuses lose all their value????? they retain their value better than virtually any other car. just people talking who dont know what they are talking about!

A friend drives the honda hybrid that they stopped making. Gets about 60 mpg on the highway and got offerend more than he paid for it.

what was the total cost Cat, after TTL? And you can get a prius under MSRP in cali.

$23,569 minus what i got for the sale of the mustang. putting ending price about $10,300 (im glad i was able to sell the mustang. dealers were going to pay 9k for it!!! but a woman that didnt commute said it was her dream car. i was afraid with gas prices they way they are itd be like trucks in some states and places would only take them - if at all - for waaaaaaaaay under bluebook.... which i guess is what they offered me with that measly 9k)

avg trips around the hood 99mpg, trips to grocery store 56-63mpg, highway 50+. this is also driving like a prius is just any other car.

option was to buy new for 23,569 or get a 2005 lower model with 60k for 21,500 from a carmax south of houston... these cars straight out dont devalue. thats why its just hard to get any used ones. there were 2 in houston that i found (0 on car lots) 1 having a salvage title after a major accident. and people in some states are waiting several months for theirs (mine 5 weeks)

i know a guy that fit a 9ft ladder in his, people that moved with 13 shoe boxes, a dresser and 15 drawers. and an owner thats over 6.5ft tall. the space is totally insane inside!

when you are in a prius and drive it around its not your fault. you literally just cant stop talking about it

in addition to having a backup camera, bluetooth, optional navigation i chose not to get (too cumbersome) and amenities youd have to buy a luxury sedan to get for under 25k!


my apologies but I CANT STOP

You still didn't answer my question... how did you buy it "direct" from Toyota? You call the plant in Japan? The Toyota website just points to Houston dealerships.

and TTL on 25k should be something like 27 at least, depending on warranties and such.

no sorry i didnt pay 27k. 27k would have been almost 2k outside of my budget (why is this an argument? you dont actually have 5 tvs!). my 7yr/100,000 mile platinum toyota warranty was 990 that i did not add onto the price. and i did explain what buying direct is

I'm not arguing with you Cat my God I'm just asking how you bought your damn car. I've never heard of someone buying a vehicle direct from the manufacturer and am curious. I asked you how you bought direct and your answer was basically "I didn't buy from a dealer". well duh.

1. How did you order of your vehicle?
2. What method did you use to pay for it?
3. Where did you sign paperwork, and pick up the vehicle?
4. What was the purchase price, and tax + title + license, etc?

and yes, there are actually 5 TVs in my house at the moment. all hooked up and watchable. 3 of em in HD smile.gif.
