    I will be getting the Prius V Pearl White with ATP. They will also be installing the remote starter. Hope I have it by the weekend!!! I know someone will ask so I ended up paying 31k. I tried like hell to get it for 30k but the dealer wasn't going to budge at all on this. I think I got a really good deal anyway, I think.

    Hey I just got a new Gen3 two weeks ago and, like you, had to wait a couple of days before driving it off the lot.

    Here's what I did to make the wait less painful and even productive: I downloaded the manuals and began reading: it's over 600 pages and the supplemental navigation manual was another 400! I can only imagine what the ATP package will add to this total.

    Congrats.

    I have the owners manual and the service manual on my phone. I plan to do some serious reading this weekend. I can't wait to see my car for the first time!

    Many happy V owners

    I like my V 13000 miles and still happy with it.
    It's getting harder to get a good deal on these small cars,
    A lot of dealers here have UPFRONT pricing or ONE price,Hate it!
    Doc and Plate fees another $350.Auto starter will be nice.

    Congrats...love my 1-month old to me IV. This is definitely one car where reading the manual opens many doors. I still have to get my arms around a lot especially voice, nav etc. But one of the best things I added was a ScanGauge II. Really added a new level of information on what's happening in this great big computer, which increasingly I'm thinking the Prius is...in a good way.

    My wife and I just traded in our 07 Honda EX for a Silver III w/ solar panel just last Sunday. So far she is very happy with the transition to a Hybrid. My older brother was the one to call us on how he got a really good deal from Longo Toyota, ca that he had purchase on 12/30/10. Any recommedation on how to brake in the Prius the right way?
