    I believe this is the first 2016 Prius at a dealership for sale. This one came in last night, 01(12-13) 2016. It is the 2016 Base Prius model TWO, with a MSRP of a little over $25,000 with destination charges included.
    MPG on sticker avg. 52 mpg. Seafoam green with black interior. Available at Lums Toyota, located in Warrenton, Oregon, which is in the northwestern section of Oregon. So if anyone wants to buy you know where
    it is. I seen it this morning at the dealership. If we were to buy one my wife and I would probably choose the black exterior and black interior Eco model which has the lithium battery and obtains
    56 mpg avg. Seems like a no brainer for another $500.00 over the base Prius TWO model.

    nope. someone here already has one in their garage. if you decide to buy an eco, take a good long test drive on the funky tyres. and test drive the two non eco to see how mpg's and ride compare.

    @alfon You want someone to buy the 2, just so the temptation is gone... ;)

    I do not know about "no brainer": for that $500 extra you get:

    no spare
    no rear wiper
    uneven hatch floor
    (aforesaid) funky tires

    I believe the Prius Eco has a lithium battery the Base model does not.
