Can you please give me the website for Concord internet department, i would very much appreciate it. I live in the NorthEast and am looking to buy a prius with atleast package 2 ASAP. I am new member to this site and have been trying to read through the links to see what's the best price i can expect to pay for this car.
I wonder if i upgrade to package 5, would i get better discounts? I am sure about not wanting leather. So, i pretty much want to stick to package 2 if i could clinch a good deal.
Also, would a CA dealer deliver through a local dealer in Northeast?
All your help would be deeply appreciated.
I am in SoCal and just leased a '08 Prius with package two. I had a trade-in worth $1,000 and put $650 down. My price is $355/mo for 36 months with 12,000 miles. I feel like that's a pretty good deal. I leased it at Toyota of Hollywood from a great guy named ROY.
sc
How can I get them to lowere it to 800?
Thanks
For extended warranty, just google "prius extended warranty". Less than $1000 for 7/100K coverage.
Dealer told me this price does not include tax, title or other fees. this is only car's price with package 2. Did u have to pay taxes separately?
They have some other fees included in this price but so far this is the best I've seen as they can't keep the pkg #2 in stock.
What does everyone think?
The Prius Package 2 seems to be difficult to find and hard to negotiate as they are super popular in California.
THANKS!!
One of the quotes I got was $26,840 OTD from Longo Toyota and I'm still working with the others. The guy said it was about $100 over invoice and he gave me a $400 graduate discount.
No. Hollywood was quoting me at $26,334.00
Has anyone gotten a better deal in the Los Angeles Area?
Or can anyone recommend what I should do to get a better price?
Went to (Toyota of Gastonia) by Charlotte, NC and after a few trips back and forth we settled on 2008 Prius with package 2 for $24,900 out the door (all taxes & fees included). They didn't have a Prius on the lot but could get one in a day or two. We'll see if the wait's that short, but either way I don't care. I can wait and I think I got a deal that was fair for the both of us. They didn’t make t easy though; I had to work for it. The problem for consumers is that dealers can't keep the cars on the lots (much like the VW Bug or resent Mustang craze) so it makes negotiating difficult. They know they will sell it to the guy behind you if you’re not going to pay their price. My saving grace was that I was willing to wait and bought without a trade in. Here's a tip for all of you who aren’t in the know; don’t bring a trade to the table if you can help it. They just use the trade as leverage to work the numbers against you anyway. Sell it before buying and if you just can't wait than try a CarMax dealership. They normally give you $2k more than the dealer if the cars in good condition. I hope this helps you make better choices.
Any thoughts on this from recent SOCAL Lease takers:
Package 6
12K miles p.a.
MSRP( really?) $27,884 (inc mats)
Residual: 15,110 (that sounds more like 15K miles to me)
zero down, $768 drive off total
$487 per month
The fleet manager did offer $400 p.m . with 3500 down so I know theres some room. I'm not looking to break balls, just get the fairest deal poss that I feel top tier credit deserves.
And remain slightly indignant / entitled...
thanks!
That means you're paying approx $27,000 for the car. I've seen it go for a lot less on the forum - more like $26,400 which would make the payments around $465. I'm assuming the payment included tax? I worked out a deal in So Cal for $464 a month including tax for a 15K, 36 month lease with 0 down on a pkg 6.
A friend on mine scored the same lease for 420 a month and 1500 down - lucky boy
tphssenior - how long ago did you get that lease? I know they are getting tight
Did not even receive any responses to my email inquiries......... :-(
1. Does this sound like a good deal? Don't know what's on it.
2. What's this thing I hear about changing the batteries and costing a few thousand?
Please enlighten me.
Prius pkg 2 - 24,365
tinted windows - 180
total MSRP - 23,845 and also the offer price.
This car is not on the lot and is being delivered from the Gulf state distributor.
Salesman says this MSRP is his lowest price. Edmunds TMV shows a TMV of $257 below MSRP.
Are other people in TX seeing similar pricing for pkg #2?
So I started calling dealers in Oklahoma. They were more willing to negotiate. I just got my Prius #2 for $23000 before tax from Putnam Toyota. I'll pay the tax/registration here in Texas. The salesperson was great and even brought the car himself. Great service.
Good luck.
Do any of you Prius owners have experience using your Prius in Real Estate work? If so, do your clients “accept” the smaller vehicle because it is more “green” or do you wish you were in a Lexus ES330 or RX330?
Thank you for your thoughts ..
I guess you think it is still worthwhile :-) then...
The '09 was initially scheduled for this fall... at least that is my understanding.
However, for "reasons" it has been delayed until first quarter '09 or at least that seems to be the majority of the rumors I am reading.
So I am just concerned about the possible effect on the value of my purchase with a brand-new updated version coming "shortly."
Thanks
I was trying to Poll the members to see if it was still an efficacious decision given the changes that are going to be made to the '09 and the thought that it will theoretically be available in less than 9 months.
Could you please pass on any info that helped you find the right dealer and price?
Can you please tell me if by OTD, you mean it includes taxes, titles and everything?
Thanks
thanks for the quick reply. Does anyone has any exprience with Westchester toyota in yonkers? I read on internet that they say one thing in emails but once you get to the dealership, they give u a different price and don;t honour their email quotes....
Which dealer to go to?...in tristate area...
