    Isn't that because sensibility would dictate buying a lightly used car for significantly less? When I bought my Prius, I found it online, was very open on colors and equipment, and found a dealership that had 3 seaside blue ones on their used lot. I looked up values, did my research, and made a lowball offer, which they refused. They did, however, counter with an acceptable offer, which I said I'd think about. I went it to the dealership, commented on the fact that they had three of the same color, and would they take $xxxxx to reduce that number. I'd have bought another Prius had they said no, but they said yes, simply because I asked. I'd rather take an extra day or two to make sure I'm getting a good deal and be happy, than to jump on what the salesman tells me is a good deal, and regret it the entire time I own the car.

    Just goes to show that it never hurts to try. Congrats on your car and your new warranty!
