Hello All: My first post, but I have been lurking for a month or so. I am ready to Lease a New Prius, and I'm getting some Lease pricing (Dealers in Eastern PA, and Northern New Jersey, and they seem like the numbers are like $100 per month too high. $466/month $0 down 36mo/36K for a Pkg III. I am driving an Infiniti (15.5MPG) right now and could just about get one of those for pricing in that range. I am thinking due to the $3.55 per gallon gas, dealers a padding their numbers. I just want to VENT a little, but the payments don't make sense. Yes, I could cut my gas bill by 2/3, but it still doesn't justify the extra dollars on the Prius. My gas bill now is about $120 per month. I don't put on a ton of mileage. Maybe I just didn't find the right dealers. Also it appears the supply in our area is very low right now. Most dealers only have 5 or 10 cars. I would really like to get a Pkg IV for about $330/month $0 down. Is that possible?? Thanks.
does seem a little high. what is the msrp? i think if you look thru some of the threads here, it is possible. but it might depend on what part of the country. all the best!

Yes, I am using Dianne's numbers as a guideline. MSRP was $25,010 for a base Pkg III . I will continue my search.
It's hard to use my #'s to compare. Southern CA rates are very aggressive right now, as are prices for the cars. I predict I will be doing a lot of out of state leases soon. I also predict Prius at MSRP again very soon! And, some dealerships will start with the markup crap again! Dianne
The ads on TV (here in Cleveland) have been for 2010's for $229/month. That's probably a II, but nonetheless...... it might be worth checking in to.
I did spend some time today sending out Internet requests and it looks like I am able to cut $100 of my previous numbers. More like $350/mo for a Pkg IV, Base, No Nav. Getting happier.
Hi Dianne is a lease for a Prius II with below figures a good deal? I reserved a car but I still can go back. PLease let me know. Thanks. 12K MILES $2000 DOWN+FIRST PAYMENT+260 TAGS 189 PER MONTH+TAX
Dealers are back at MSRP in my area for 2010's and 2011's. They were discounting off MSRP, but stopped that a few days ago.
You could buy one for a payment less than that and be better off after 3 years of payments. That seems really high. I bought a 2010 II with 0 down, payments of $405.00 x 60. Even with todays market, I would think you could buy a III for the payment you quoted.
The 2010 has different incentives and in Florida is sold out. The 2011 mobey factor is .00124 with a 59% redidual. So far this is the best deal I have been quoted based on the national advertised SE Toyota finance. I might wait until all the gas problem ends which I do not think it can be that bad. Thanks for your comments.
