2014 versus 2013 Plug-in Prius - which is a better deal?

Toyota just announced a steep price cut in the 14 plug ins. It was in my Sunday paper (the L.A. Times) I suggest you research the 14's before making a purchase.

 

He is getting $1,500 below the new 2014 price cut.

After $2,500 tax credit, it is below $26k. Pretty good deal especially in CA.

 

So the 2014's are already out over here in the states? I thought the Prius model usually wasn't for sale until a little later in the year.

 

I was able to get my dealers in Nor Cal to lower the price down to 28K flat. There were ads for < 28.3K
Should I wait or...

 

Stopped by the local dealer here yesterday. Very few 2013s left, everything else are 2014s.

 

Interesting. Any incentives on the 2014's?

 

No doubt the incentives will be less on 2014 models and I thought the 2014 PiP was arriving at dealers in late November? The price trend for 2013 PiP's is headed downward and there's currently 0% financing. My guess is you would end up paying slightly more, $800-$1200 for the 2014.

 

I'm thinking the sales guys don't know what they are talking about (standard) in the above case where they said there were already 2014's. I don't think any Prius has ever come out this early, unless it was a special MY release.

 

It was early Sunday (101313) morning and the dealership wasn't open yet. I saw several 2014 Prius Vs and some regular 2014 Prius hatchbacks. Verified by the factory window sticker.

 

I suppose this would give more credence to a 2015 Gen4 that gets released almost mid year next year.
