Noob trying to decide between two Prii and am nervous

Something to remember:
THEY are not YOUR dealer....YOU are THEIR customer.


.....or not.
You're the one with the money and the 2 things you have to remember about a Prius are that they get really REALLY good gas mileage, and other dealers besides Ms Whitmire are selling them for <$20K, so you're not stoking them.

I'd tell them to pound sand.....and I'd remember them when it comes time to pick a dealer for routine maintenance.

Good Luck.

 

Show them this thread......

 

Don't let them sell you any extras!

Best of luck!

 

Call around, I wouldn't buy used at those prices. I just bought my 2015 prius two from Toyota of Redlands near San Bernardino new for 21,875 out the door. There a lady that posts her prices on this forum that has comparable deals in OC. It's worth a one way plane ticket if your area dealers won't play ball. Call the internet departments of ypour local dealers. There is still a 3000 rebate on the 2015's.

 

Make sure they are talking about a Prius lift back 2, not a Prius C 2.

 

congrats!!! otd at $19k? maybe a record price! 7% lower interest??? what rate did they give you?

 

Wow, great price! I'm assuming that is on a two or that's a ridiculous price! I'm with bisco...for a rate to be 7% lower, what were they trying to charge you in the first place?? That high of rate would have been several thousand dollars over the life of the loan.

 

what color did you get?

 

Great car at a great price!!!

Congratulations

 

Thumbs up! The things you learned here will save you a lot of money in future dealings with car dealers.....nice going.

 

Wow...yeah 22% is a joke. Good plan on paying double payments, etc. if you do it right I would think it can help you.

 

I confess to not reading past the solar roof option on one choice. I just bought a 2015 specifically for that option. When the outside temp is above 78 it runs the dashboard vent system on fan setting non-recirculate to exchange the inside air for outside air. With blizzard white paint it means when I get into the car instead of being 50-60 degrees hotter it's only 5-10 degrees hotter. The 2015 also has a button on the fob that will turn on the a/c in the car if there's over 20% HV battery charge. It will run for 3 minutes. With that I can stand near a window and watch for the turn signal lights to blink, have the a/c on, get a refill for my drink and get into a car several degrees cooler than outside. I will never have another car without this feature.

 

There's no easy & fast way out. Keep current on the car loan and pay down the most expensive debt first. Keep the credit cards open--just don't use them.
