2010 Prius due in Colorado about Jun 16

[sagoff]

Hi folks,
I am also in Colorado Springs, and have a II on order. I too have been informed that my naked II will be here in mid-June. I worked with Jeff. Jeff has been great to work with. I will point out that Liberty is a bit aggressive in the "finance officer" arena, looking to sell extras.

And the Barcelona Red/Bisque that they have locked up? Lucky you if you drove it!

Enjoy!

The red one is definitely available as a demo. Lots of people taking test drives.

You will have your car before I figure out exactly what & how I am going to order. So, you enjoy as well.

Thank you for the heads-up on the finance guy, I'll watch out for him. My salesperson is Jen, the internet manager. So far this has been an easy and straight-forward transaction.

But because of all the great info on Prius Chat, I haven't been relying on the salesperson much for information. I would love it if I could order a car online the way I order a computer from Dell. Makes me wonder how much of a future the car dealer business model really has. As car dealers go Liberty seems pretty decent so far.

I spoke with Stevinson early on. I found the salesperson to be evasive and not honest in his answers to my questions. I guess he was trying to convince me that it's impossible to buy a Toyota for under $3-5k over MSRP, and he had a really elaborate story to tell. I couldn't convince him that I don't have time for all that c**p. I actually talked with several salespeople like that at Denver-area dealers and wondered how they stay in business treating their customers like that. I ended up buying for under MSRP in the Springs.

Boulder Toyota just got their first one yesterday, a Beige Prius V, already reserved. Mine should be arriving early July.

By the way, their web page's new inventory section doesn't currently represent their available stock, nor what's incoming and available to reserve.

Burt Toyota has been great and sold 15 the first three days they had the Demo I pick mine up next week

Thanks - I didn't make it by last Saturday, but still need to stop in for filters.

Thanks for the warning. I generally just buy parts there, and am not necessarily in the market for a 2010 (still enjoying my 2006). I could, however, be persuaded to trade the wife's Impala for a leftover 2009 if the price were great

I purchased a 2010 at Boulder Toyota on Tuesday. No one had it on order and it was exactly what I wanted.

It is an awesome car!

They got 3 - one was pre-orded the other two did not have orders on it.

Of all the dealers I called and didn't buy from, the Stevinson guy is the only one who has followed up, and he has called repeatedly. He has one demo car, as all the dealers apparently do, and he is eager to sell it to someone. No takers, apparently.
