    @Raytheeagle No worry! I couldn't tell if you had fleeting interest or just hoped you could find one w/o a 10K markup - that's very typical. I have almost 60 Prime and about 20 regular Prii here/coming. I sell everything Toyota makes tho! I'm just always known for Prius since 2001.

    I’ll keep you in mind when our 2010 gives up the ghost;).

    But that might not be for another couple years(y).

    I'm in heaven. A transporter just pulled up loaded with Prius, and it's full of Primes and regular Prius and the driver told me I have another transport right behind it .... where's the snoopy happy dance GIF when I need it? (y):)

    Since you are not just talking about Prius, how about allocation of Rav4 hybrids? Any word yet?

    Hi Roy! Not yet. I am placing orders in our system right now for what I need as far as models, colors, and guessing a bit at packages. :) NO actual release date yet.

    I just got our first Corolla hybrid! Window sticker replica attached to this post. Beautiful car. Hey I may be the Queen of Prius (and Rav4 EV empress LOL) but this is a sweet little car for the $. Remember I sell everything Toyota builds.. not just hybrids. :)
    I may be one of the only folks around willing to discount this model significantly. I have this one, plus 10 others coming pretty soon.

    Looks nice! However, I for one will not be in the market for one until they start being discounted in a year or two. (y)

    Thanks for posting the pics though! Looks nice.

    The body color is nice, but until Toyota loses that big black grille, my next car may not be a Toyota. One redeeming feature of the Prius is the lack of that "black mouth".

    They build trucks in Texas, not Corolla, but all Corolla hybrids will be built in Japan, for now.

    I also have Rav4 hybrid pricing, details and a healthy allocation of them of course... and Corolla hybrids too!

    2019 Prius Prime .... we do have quite a few HERE on ground with decals pre-requested, and a few listed below are also arriving VERY VERY soon (83 of them total).

    I have an awesome selection! A few are really unusual super white premium package cars. On Prime, Toyota also offers a $500 rebate OR there's a 4.9 apr for 60 months, or 5.49 for 72 months thru 4/1/19. In California, these will have a purple HOV decal and, you'll get nearly 4 years in the diamond lanes!
    Of the models/colors below, what interests you? I am happy to send back pricing once I know what you'd like. :) Regular Prius models are listed beneath the Prime list below:

    Base (plus): 18 available.
    Pearl white (6)
    titanium glow (6)
    Blue magnetism (2)
    gray/black (2)
    red/black (2)

    Premiums: 49 available
    Super white/black (2)
    Pearl white/black (6)
    Silver/black (8)
    Gray/black (7)
    Pearl Red/black (4)
    Titanium glow/black (7)
    Blue magnetism/black (15)

    Advanced: 16 available
    Pearl white/black (4)
    Gray/black (8)
    Silver/Black
    Titanium glow/black (3)

    Regular 2019 Prius, we have just a few trickling in like everyone else... and we offer 2.9 apr for 60 months, or 3.9 for 72 months, no rebate.

    2019 Prius packages are now restructured to L, LE, XLE and LIMITED. The AWD-e models are LE or XLE only.

    Since many of you ask me "hey do you only sell Prius" I'll say here NO, I sell everything Toyota makes, used and pre-owned, but since this is a Prius site, I do pretty much just post the Prius models here. There are many of you who are just starting to gravitate to Prius, and the plug in Prime... and a few graduated to other models because it's human to outgrow a smaller car when families and work needs take precedence to fuel economy and commute issues.

    I do have a large healthy selection of everything, not just hybrids! But, here's the scoops on my Rav4 hybrids for the next 6 weeks. I know many dealers plan to mark them sky high, but not me.

    LE: red pearl w/ blind spot, or gray w/ blind spot. That's 2 LE so far.
    XLE: gray (2), black (2), blueprint, and with conv package I have white, lunar rock, and gray also. That's 8 XLE total so far.
    XSE: pearl white/black roof two-tone (3) and a blueprint/black. Their options vary. That's 4 XSE so far.
    Limited: Pearl white w/bisque(tan) inter (3) and a silver/black inter - that's 4 Limiteds so far.


    Corolla hybrids: I have 11 total here/coming.

    Pearl white HERE RIGHT NOW

    Pearl white (3 total)
    Super white
    Gray (3)
    Blueprint (3)

    I cannot post my deals due to our advertising covenant agreements, so if you're reasonably close to me, email me, tell me where you are so I can help you best with pricing and shipping estimates! If you're not sure if it might be worth it, find out for certain whether it is or not. Thanks! :)
