    If you build your prius with a zip code of 98034, You will see Current Special right below the calculated MSRP price. It says..

    2004 Prius: MSRP from $21,790*

    Disclaimer: Most popular model & equipment available in Western Washington! *MSRP includes delivery, processing/handling and the following equipment: Remote Keyless Entry System, Anti-Theft System w/Engine Immobilizer, Power Windows, Power Locks, Driver & Front Passenger Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System, Deluxe AM/FM ETR/Cassette w/4 Speaker, Etc.

    Good question -- I see the same thing under the "Current Specials" link.

    However, this appears to be a base model (i.e., not a #1 -- doesn't mention rear window wiper) -- no options at all -- with a AM/FM ETR/Cassette player (which does not come with the base model.)

    Sounds like a mark-up for not very much to me.

    BTW, what's ETR?

    Maybe they had a pile of fleet cars they decided to retail or something.
