    Looking to lease three additional Prii - two for my business and one for an employee. My current 2010 Prius was leased for $2380 due on signing and $169/mo plus taxes, 3 years, all service calls included, 15K miles/year, one full auto detailing every six months.

    Anything similar out there?

    BTW, I was dealing with GM to lease a Chevy Volt - I really love the vehicle (especially the information console, it just looks sweet, and makes the Prius information center look cheap), and loved the $349/mo lease.... but it stopped there - I wanted to lease up to 6 vehicles, and it turned into the biggest scam in the world. My opinion: they have no intention on leasing the vehicle because they're estimating the Volt to be less than $25K by the 2014 model year, which is just under the residual value of their $349/mo lease, so they'd be stuck with older cars with residual prices higher than a brand new model! Beware of Chevy! Oh, of course, I was totally qualified to buy 6 vehicles, just not to lease them!

    Thanks!

    What in the world?... :confused:

    You're saying that they're advertising a lease price, but that it's not actually possible to lease the car? And "Beware of Chevy"? J.D. Power's ratings show that "sales satisfaction" is higher for Chevy than it is for Toyota.

    Maybe someone else can decipher your post for me.

    Hey Ben, you got a hell of a deal. Hook me up if you find another one like it. I'll fly out to Phoenix and get a room at your hotel. :D
