I just stated "not to me, because I'm not interested in their offer". Told him that Stuart Toyota was insulting buyers with those types of tactics and I wouldn't be coming back. Hope that helps the next buyer get a better deal.

At least I got a brochure out of them so me and my wife can see more clearly than the internet pics. She is interested in the crystal white with ivory interior she thinks, but we did not see any with those colors, and they had no limiteds on the lot.

Any news on the '08 models coming out?

You could buy it online for 3K under sticker in your area. Don't expect the '08 Hybrid until late summer/early fall.
