Prius 2010 Out-the-Door prices comparison: Good price or not?

I think there's already a thread on this.
Prius II (Barcelona Red)
$22,000 (Bought at MSRP)
$750 (delivery)
$200 (floor mats)
==========
22950 + taxes and tags which vary by state

No extra add-ons or warranties.

 

Who really knows? This is an international site and only your fellow Texans may have an idea as to your tax rate. Let us know the deal without taxes as that's the deal. taxes are what they are and you don't change them.

 

Here are the three "out the door" prices (taxes NOT included) I have been offered (Northern Indiana Area):

#1
Prius III + NAV (White w/tan interior)
Base: 23000
Nav: 1800
Bumper Protector: 69
Front Protector: 395
Paint: 220
All Weather Mats: 199
Destination: 750
Documentation: 149.50
Dealer (Gates Toyota, South Bend, IN) Discount: 500

Out the Door: 26,082.50

I did not take this one because first, I want a SLR package, and second, I refuse to pay that much in add on's (395+199 is just too much)


#2
Prius III + NAV (Dark Gry w/Dark Gry)
Base: 23000
Nav: 1800
Bumper Protector: 69
Destination: 750
Documentation: 95
Dealer (Jordan Toyota, Mishawaka, IN) Discount: 250

Out the Door: 25,369

I did not take this one because first I want a SLR package. If it would have been solar, I would have got it (I can deal with only 69 in add on's)



#3
Prius III + SLR (Dark Gry w/Dark Gry)
Base: 23000
Solar + Nav: 3600
Bumper Protector: 69
Front Protector: 395
All Weather Mats: 199
Remote Start: 529
Destination: 750
Documentation: 149.50
Dealer (Gates Toyota, South Bend, IN) Discount: 500

Out the Door: 28,191.50

I did not take this one because I refuse to pay that much in add on's (395 +199 + 529 is just too much)

I have told both dealers (Gates and Jordan) that I want a III + SLR in either white or dark gry, with minimal add on's. I am #1 on the waiting list at Jordan, so that means I get first crack at all incomming 2010's. I am hoping that they get what I want soon...

This should be an informative thread!

 

Re: Prius 2010 Out-the-Door prices comparison: Good price or not?

Looking at Edmunds pricing, the car would MSRP for $30,150 + remote, mats and tint. If you want those extras then it appears they are offering you a decent discount

 

I can tell you GST charges $300 msrp for port installed ceramic tint. They did a good job on my car. I can also tell you I regret getting the remote engine start. By the time I remember to turn the car on, I'm usually already on top of it. Then, as soon as I unlock any door, it instantly turns off.

Oh, and anyone getting anything off MRSP in Texas at this point in the inventory buildup is probably doing well.

 

Is this a good price? I currently have a deposit on the vehicle.

Prius II (Blizzard Pearl)
$22,750 (Price)
Price Includes:
Special Color $220
Carpet and Cargo Floor Mats $200
Destination $750
==========
22750 + taxes and doc fee and state fees which vary by state

 

Re: Prius 2010 Out-the-Door prices comparison: Good price or not?

By the way, the solar roof package already includes remote start of the A/C (runs off the batteries for up to 3 minutes). Remote engine start is a separate option that would definitely be overkill in Houston.

 

Hmmm, not much reason to remove it now that I bought it. Doesn't hurt anything. I think the main component is an add-on computer board. I suppose the main purpose is to allow pre-warming or pre-cooling when your car is sitting nearby outside (like in your driveway). Toyota is extremely liability conscious, so to avoid having the possibility of some thief or kid jumping in the pre-started car and driving off, they require that it be locked, and even go so far as to force shutoff the second you do unlock it. The good news for you is that with the solar roof package remote A/C, instead of starting the car, it just starts the A/C running off of batteries only (if you press the A/C button on the fob). Only lasts up to 3 minutes, but I think it doesn't care if the car is locked or not.

Got my car through a special program, but was delivered through Fred Haas Toyota. I like their service dept.

 

I just picked up my Prius II (red), it had wheel locks on it which are a pain, but i ordered an extra wrench to have in the house when (not if) I lose the original one, they charged me dealers cost, $15.

I paid $22450+ taxes and state charges, plus some bogus $45 charge for "convenience of getting registration thru dealer"?!. I got a great deal because my nephew works for honda and I told them I was planning to get an insight for a very good price (I was) but they gave me this price for "that moment" only, you know how that goes. But I took it since other dealer Hoselton would offer no discount at all. but when i showed up to pick up the car they had tacked on a $100 wash & wax charge that i insisted they take off, it hadn't been mentioned to me when i agreed to buy the car.

I have a friend who then proceeded to buy a car from them a week after me, but his price was 22750 plus I am giving him half of my finders fee of $100.

 

Picked up a Classic Silver/Misty Gray IV - $25,800 with:
Delv, proc and handling fees - $805
solar roof + nav - $3.600
tint - $299
vehicle shield pkg - $349
sealant
sound shield
cleaner
rental asst.
owner rewards pkg - $762
security sys upgrade
carpet mat set
carpet floor mats
trunk mat
rear bumper protection
wheel locks
cargo net
two no charge service visits
synthetic oil/filter
tire rotation
multi-point insp
They included two system setups, single rear beep and no seatbelt beep, which the dealer normally charges $95 each for.

Bought it at Community Toyota in Baytown, paid sticker of $31,615. Got a fair trade in on my 2005 Honda Odyssey, at least I think so.
I like it a lot, works great and I am getting over 50 mpg with my first hybrid.:rockon: Even better than my Kawasaki gets. Good luck with getting what you want at the price you want, had Fred Haas Toyota Country tell the wife and I that there would not even be any solars until August, and then there would be a value added cost up to $5,000. They are really pushing the '09 models it seems also.

 

congrats! who says you can't find a solar roof in Texas? :rockon:

 

Who said you can't find or get solar roof in Texas? The sales I talked to in Sterling Mccall!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

July 2, 2009 in California for:
MSRP - 22,848 included floor mats, first aid kit, cargo net
Out the door - 25,245

Not to happy with the price, but love the car.
