Does anyone have package #8?

You can place an order for whatever you want. However don't expect to recieve one that isn't available on their website under "build your own" until demand slows down (mid-late 05 is my guess)

 

I had ordered a package 8. When all I saw coming through the dealer lot were 9's, I modified my order to include package 8 or 9.

 

WA... no

My dealer's TRAC car here in Virginia is an 8

I was waiting for a package #9. However, the dealer had a cancellation on a Seaside #8 so I took it. The HID, curtin airbags, and homelink sure would be nice!

 

I am In Los Angeles. Ordered a silver package #9, but a silver #8 came in so I jumped on (in) it. The HomeLink is no big deal, side curtain air bags, no big deal, auto dimming mirror, over priced, but I would have liked the HID headlights. Overall I don't think it's worth the difference they charge for the #9 over the #8. The trick is getting the opportunty to buy either one! If the only thing holding you back from getting one now is the accessory package but the color is right, get off your butt and write the check. If you don't buy it when the opportunity presents itself, somebody else is waiting in a long line behind you to buy it now. Who knows when the "right" one will show up and maybe the dealership's owner has somebody else in mind to give the "rignt" one to.

 

What does package #8 cost?

As described in this PriusChat thread, between the web site and discussions with various dealers, there are some packages that are not offered in some regions of the U.S.

In Seattle, at least for the 2004 Prius, only packages 1, 7 and 9 (and maybe 5 -- have heard it both ways) are supposed to be available. Don't know if this would open up when the 2005 "model year" starts up.
