Hello All-

Coming off a line of BMWs (2000 328i, 2003 530i, 2005 X5 4.4i) and into a Prius. I just ave my local dealer a deposit on a gray '08 Touring with the rare (in NJ, at least) Package 6. Dealer says MSRP for 2008 isn't set yet, but I'm hoping it's same as (or not much more than) 2007. Can't wait to start saving gas!

You will enjoy your Prius - but be warned, it will change your driving habits. Good luck on the 2008

Congrats on the Prius purchase!

I came into the Prius world from the BMW realm as well [2001 325i] and it's quite a different car to drive. However, these days I'd drive the Prius over the BMW. The Prius is so much fun to drive, plus the fuel savings is incredible. Not having to put in 93 anymore is quite nice! Plus I only visit the pump once per month instead of 2-3 times!

That being said, nothing beats the smooth effortless acceleration of a BMW.... but I'm too concerned about the environment these days to make it my primary car. Prius all the way!

Enjoy!

Your dealer is wrong.

Hey, Toyota dealers would never lie to us!

MKL, congratulations on your deposit/purchase. Wonder if the 08 gray is the exact same color as my 07 magnetic gray metallic.

Well Best Of Luck And I hope it will be everything you want it to be.
We must see a picture when you get it.
Eatontown, WoW I use to like in Atlantic Highlands for about 8-9 years. Loved the beaches. Still miss them.
But had to relocate for the Job, First To Ohio and now Upsate New York.
Well Best Of Luck!!

When I signed up for Priapus, we didn't know if he would come in as an '04 or if he would be an '05. One thing we did know was that the MSRP would most likely change. For that reason, the order form I signed had the price listed as "MSRP." We just plugged in the number when he arrived.
