Would you change your pkg.

B Rad · 05-29-2006, 12:23 PM

After driving your cars awhile are you happy with the pkg. you selected, or would you change up/down if doing it again???????????

I would definitely do a PKG # 8, would love to have the leather! That's the only thing I regret. Maybe next year?

I'd go for a Pkg "C" (or navigation package). I'd love to have the nav, bluetooth and backup camera

I would absolutely get a package #3. I bought mine off the lot, and without lots of attention (duh!), I failed to confirm that it had side airbags. I asked, and was told that it did have them, but I wasn't familiar with the different packages.

I so wish I had found this site before buying my baby, but the only thing I would change is the side airbags.

Peace --

I'm fine with my package #1.

But I still want a gray interior.

Next time (hopefully 2009 model) I'd like a dark blue exterior, gray interior and I may move up to another package. Maybe something with the smartkey. I don't need a 6 cd changer or nav and after reading about the vandalism I'm not sure I want HID headlights. The smartkey might be nice. But whatever the package it would still have to have the side impact airbags.

And the car would still have to have a hatchback. No hatchback...I'll keep what I have.

If there is not dark blue...I'm still willing to wait. The next Prius may be my last new car as I'll be retiring in 2012. So I'll wait for a dark blue hatchback with a gray interior and see what the packages are then.

i would have gotten the nav package, package #6(bc), but i couldn't afford it and don't really need nav. plus i really didn't want the upgraded jbl stereo.

i got package 3 (the lowest offerd round here) and have no complaints i dont need any of that other stuff. i have a tom tom if i need a nav.

hilore · 05-29-2006, 04:06 PM

I love my 05 package 3.
I love the smart key feature, just walk to the car
reach for the door and drive. I love the safety feature
too, especially the side curtain airbags.

No I don't need NAV or JBL stereo thank you.

I wish it had an IPOD docking intergrated into the
factory radio.

No, I'll keep my package, Thank You!
It serves me quite well, and my wife has no complaints.

P.S. We are talking about Prii, aren't we?

I have a pkg 7 that had leather added at port. I wanted an 8 due to leather steering wheel. I have not had time to put on wheelskin yet. I wish I had gotten an 8 but was told nearly impossible to get in SE.
