Someone in the color poll thread asked for a trim poll thread, so here it is. 1 vote advanced (blue).
I'm really surprised at how many people were as crazy as I was and ordered the advanced trim. I came very close to not ordering at all.
Had to go basic. Just not enough "killer" features in the advanced package to go all big-ballin' over. It would have been nice though.
I got the standard Clearwater Blue. I couldn't afford the advanced package (and even the standard package is a little above the ceiling I set for myself when considering the Prius). For $40K, I think I'd need a little bit more than just 15 EV miles too.
The advanced is definitely not worth what they are asking, but you only go around once, right? Then again for 10K more, you can get a Tesla Model S Advanced in Blizzard Pearl.
It'll be interesting to see the split between the two trim levels of PriusChat members versus the overall nationwide split between the two. IIRC, Toyota expects the majority to go with the base trim (I can't remember the exact ratio but something like 70/30 base/Advanced) but I'm thinking PCers are more likely to go with the Advanced model and the poll may go 50/50 at least.
