    Below is the new Prius V two price with mat, wheel lock, mudguard and rear bump protector, and trade in offer of my 2010 Prius two (25000 miles) from my local dealer in NYC.

    New Prius V = $26400
    Trade in Prius = $17400

    Plus $500 cash back from Toyota (received by mail)

    Final price $ 8500 + tax + title + fee

    I am wondering what other people paid for Prius V or trade-in value of 2010 Prius?

    check Galves: Better than Kelley Blue Book for used car values!, you will get an accurate trade in value there.

    Checkout kbb.com.... According to them the $17400 offer you are getting is for a car in fair condition. So it might be a little low.

    Thats why I use galves. Dealers use galves to appraise trades, and it is the only thing that will give you an accurate value. Kbb is just an advertising website. No dealer uses kbb to appraise a trade. They might use things like "120% of kbb value" to get people in the door, but thats. Customers flock to kbb and other sites like edmunds because it gives them a feeling of control. It's like a security blanket.
