What features does that 45k buy you? If they take the approach of other hybrids, the car will have a lot of stuff included without having to buy options packages, etc.

Looks like a *nice* vehicle.

I have had an order in for the 400H since Feb. 2004. The salesman told me that the NAV system is standard. The only options are the Levinson sound system, the rear seat DVD system and heated seats. He took my final request for options about two weeks ago. If one comes in the way I want it, Iill get that one. Other wise it will be about two months. I am 23 on the list at the dealer.
