Build a Blue prius

Tell your dealer what you want. They might be able to find it. I got exactly what I wanted that way. They had to bring it in from a dealership 250 miles away.

 

Toyota.com search is based on your zip code and tries to direct you, not the other way around. Your bio says TX so that means your in the Gulf States Region...so it will try and keep you in their market. Below is a http://www.cars.com "all miles" search I did for a Blue 2018 Four/Four Touring and shows there are appx 92 presently in the country...so yea...kinda rare. Looks like at least one in the DFW area which is Gulf States though. Your local can do Dealer Trades if you are definitely buying. The last 5 vehicle I bought in TX were Toyota and know how they work here if I can help anymore.

Good luck on your search.

 

this was the same for me with my prime advanced. thousands of plus's and premiums out there but advanced seams rare. i did what MichelleStone said and they found one ~100 miles away and toe'ed it to me on a flat bed.

if they do transfer MAKE SURE THEY DONT DRIVE IT TO YOU. i had a very heated argument buying my last car a 2014 kia soul ! i paid 30K+ for the car and they drove it ~70 miles to me. i felt like i was paying new car price for a now used (AKA left the dealer lot and publicly driven) car. i was not happy when i got it and the ODO said 81 miles.

 

It could be worse!
When we went to pick up our new 2000 Tundra it had 450 miles because it had been driven from Tennessee to Virginia.

The truck is still going strong though.

 

NO. Just means they don't have any already available in your zip code/Region...at present.

Another option, I know for fact Gulf States Region Dealerships can/will do, is see see what's coming into Country and grab one (not already purchased/ordered) for you before it gets sent to another Region. Then again...you can order one. Takes 6-10 weeks to receive exactly what you want. Using these two methods you can ALSO cater exactly what Regional and Dealership add-ons are installed...on NOT.

 

You can also travel to where there is one out of Region/State, buy it, drive it home (or ship) and pay your TTL in TX. Did it for my Mother-In-Law in Louisiana.

 

Why would that even matter? You drive it off the lot or they bring it to you, it's still new... some people pay people to drive things to them due to the convenience of it...

 

They drove mine 250 miles. They didn't tell me in advance that it was coming that far away. And whoever drove it had a lead foot. The MPG was dismal for my baby's first 250 miles. Se la vi. I'm happy with my car. I'm trying to get it paid off this year.

 

Try an auto broker from a state outside the Gulf States region and have it shipped.

Unfortunately, my auto broker has retired, but she was with Centennial Leasing & Sales in Englewood, Colorado Centennial Leasing & Sales - Englewood, CO | Cars.com
