    I know I have asked this question before. It seems that no one knows what is going to change (if anything) on the 2008. Maybe the height adjustment on the seat??? Any ideas??

    To my knowledge, Toyota hasn't announced anything. Speculation is pointless. Maybe the ejection seat as demonstrated on The Mythbusters?

    Hey cool, I want an ejection seat for all my passenger seats! Then I can get rid of my co-workers if they start talking trash about my car again.... :p (Though to their credit, they were suitably impressed by it today after I finally let them in it...I guess I can let them ride in it. IF they are nice. :lol: )

    ...so where do I go to buy the Ejection Seat upgrade? :lol:

    Everything I've read has suggested that there's going to be no significant changes (and perhaps, no changes at all) from the MY07 to the MY08 Prius. There has been talk about significant changes for the MY09 car, but most people seem to be short on details.

    Ok, so nobody knows anything. I was just wondering as I am getting my 07 by the end of the month and was wondering if it pays to wait until the 08.?

    I don't think the 08 model would be a bargain. The Prius market is highly unstable. I bought my package 2 in MD for $20,740 on April 29th. The dealer said I got this price because it was teh end of the month and he had so many in stock Toyota had stopped shipping more.

    Two months later (now) it seems that the demand is booming with the 07 Prius reaching the top 10 list in sales for May or June IIRC.

    That's the only variation I can talk about :)
