which means its under MSRP

the title claims its used but it has 7900 miles so...its definately a "used" car.

 

Hi Flare:

___Why would you pay $26,000 for a used 04 w/ 7,900 miles on it when you can pick up a new 05 package 9 for $26,300 or so with mats? You have been waiting for multiple months already so what’s the hurry?

___This whole limited production stuff reminds me of the VW Beetle, Nissan Murano, and PT Cruiser when they were first released. The Prius is holding onto the premiums for a longer period but the rush for a hybrid appears to be waning. A quick look at Edmunds --> New Cars --> Toyota --> Most researched models today and the Prius isn’t even in the top 5 anymore. Give yourself another few months and you should see better availability and pricing as more supply comes online and demand weakens somewhat.

___Good Luck

I hope so. I was really posting that for someone else cause I can't take a private dealer and New Jersey is too far...

I'm actually not even on the waiting list so I hope prices go down and availability goes up prettttyy soooon
