    The main reason I don't want the used 04 I found was because it suffered flood damage. If not for that, I would definitely consider it. I'll visit the Toyota dealership I bought from next Tuesday. If they have a Prius on the lot, I'll request a test drive.

    Yep go with the 06 unless you can find another 04 or 05 used without flood dmg (or mold smell).

    - chassis was refined, then 2006 handling is better.
    - The hip point of rear seat was lowered 2cm, therefore 2006 has more head room at rear seat.
    - The MFD resolution was improved.
