Hey reesch!
The 2010 V is fabulous! I can't believe the improvements over the Gen2 -- even though I saw the car back in January.
The Blizzard Pearl has become quite the popular color now that more people have been able to see it. I'd love to see it with the Misty Grey interior. I had a very difficult time choosing between the Blue Ribbon Metallic (Bisque) and your colors.
There may be no better time to get an extended warranty than with the first year of a new model. At the same time, I have not purchased the extended warranty myself. It can be purchased at any time prior to 36,000 miles or 3 years (I think!!!). There are some benefits in having it earlier. I don't see how an extra $700 is the right price for oil changes, however!
You'll have to drive that beautiful car out West so I can see it!

Hey A Priori!
How's the '10? We ordered our IV Blizzard Pear w/ Misty gray and Nav on May 2 and got an email today from our dealer that it is here!!! Initially he had said end of July to mid August. Unfortunately, I just began applying for a line of credit, so we may just do "visitation" for the next several days!
What are your thoughts on extended warranty? Our dealer has two Platinums for $1795 each, one includes unlimited oil changes. Not sure that justifies the extra dollars vs the PriusChat extended warranty I see for $1035. We had extended warranty on our '05 and used it for our headlight issue which would have cost us $760 (far less than the cost of the warranty).
On the one hand, Prius is Toyota, and Toyota is quality, so why bother until maybe later when the 36,000 mile coverage is about to lapse. On the other hand, "things happen" and with all the whistles and bells on Prius, I would think costs could soar fairly quickly.
Whatta ya think, Oh Great Prius Guhru?
