Thanks for the tips!

Coastie, I couldn't find an easy way to use that search to just look for V's but I adjusted the price and got a few hits, none in Blue or Grey though. Lots of Red and White. Am I missing something or is price the best way to search?

sdtundra, thanks for the pointer. I may have to call Dianne, it may be the only way I'm going to get a car before next month. Just have to bribe someone to get me there

Just be patient folks and don't give in to the dealers that want to overcharge. List price is fine, but anything over is GREED!! Didn't Gordon Gecko say "Greed is good"? I forget.

If only it could be there by the weekend of the 17th, I could go to Disneyland for my birthday and get the car in one trip.

Thanks for the pointer, sdtundra! I'm a very happy guy today.

I was using cars.com to look for my Prius with AT package. I would just enter new 2010 Prius and sort by price to look for ones $32,520 or more. Then I would call the dealer and ask if they had any. I found a couple in the midwest, but I had a deposit down that my dealer wouldn't refund, so I waited for my dealer. Fortunately, he found me a Sandy Beach one pretty quickly--my only stipulation was not white. He said they're not going to be making more for a month or two. However, while looking at cars.com, I found a ton of them in California. It's my understanding that the California-area dealers only get Prius Vs with the AT package, so it should be a little easier to find on the west coast. Good luck! I'm supposed to get my car within a month, and I can't wait!!

I tend not to believe what dealers say -- I've been lied to too many times. But I had been wondering if Toyota might pause production of Nav/AT models until the SafetyConnect system was ready to ship. I don't know, and hard to believe, but could this dealer be right this time?

Honus, I'd climb right up on that ship's deck and grab your car if I could. Your car's on the BELLONA so have a little fun tracking the freighter from port to port... see when it actually gets to Long Beach!
