I signed the order and paid $300 on Jan. 20, 2006 at Riverhead, NY Toyota Saleswoman says they only get one Prius a month from Toyota :angry: I ordered Light Blue Package 3 I don't know my number in the wait list. Any ideas how I can speed it up?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(edunlap @ Jun 9 2006, 06:12 PM) [snapback]268890[/snapback]</div> call around. go out of state. I decided 2 weeks ago to buy one and even though every dealer around town initially said they had 6 week waiting lists, somehow when I said I was ready to buy TODAY cars "materialized" at several dealerships. The salesman all said some "orders had fallen through". Last week on this chat board, someone gave a link to a dealership in Tulsa (I think) that had 6 for sale at $500 under MSRP. I just called my salesman in Maryland and he told me that there are 3 at his dealership today for sale; red, tan and white all with package 7. he told me that package 3 cars are extremely rare because Toyota likes to load them up so if you go with that selection you may wait a long time if you would like more info let me know marty
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(tweet @ Jul 4 2006, 10:44 AM) [snapback]280997[/snapback]</div> Hmmm. As someone currently ON a waiting list, I'm wondering how many times this "orders had fallen through" really translates to "We'll just tell Joe Schmoe that there was a factory or shipping glitch & his car will be a month or more late." I have nothing against shopping tactics, tweet, I'm expressing a concern about the methods of dealers.

There are forums for gen 2 to 4 and for the c, v ,and prime. There are often sub forums within the main forums. For some reason no one can explain, gen 1 is hidden within gen 2 forums.
