Look online for Earl Stewart Toyota in North Plam Beach FL who sells any & all Toyota with no dealer fees & no market adjustment B/S ! And, they have Prius in stock now & ready to go !! We bought our Highlander Hybrid there & will buy there in the future. This dealer is about a three hour drive one way but was well worth it. We dealt with Peter Rosenblum in internet sales. From what I see here online it might pay some of you to fly in to buy there & save all of these B/S fees. Good luck !! Bill in FL
I neglected to mention that the dealer here in Daytona Beach FL charges a dealer fee of $699.00 plus a "market adjustment" of $6,495 on the Prius. This must be the epitome of greed !! Bill in FL
UPDATE - on the up charge here in Daytona Beach FL on the Prius. Just did the math on a regular Prius & the up charge was $7,194 PLUS a $699. dealer fee. Their inventory has gone down so someone must be buying them.
Im surprised more dealers arent cashing in on the Prius craze. daytona bch is really sticking it to people tho. Shame on them!
I live in Michigan, and I notice that some dealers tack on a $190.00 "Documentation Fee", and a $98.00 transfer fee, just to name two. To me, this is just another way that dealers gouge the public. The Prius is a popular car, so dealers know they can get away with these blatantly bogus charges. If the public would push back en masse against these fees, some dealers might think twice about tacking them on. Not likely, but one can dream.
