I picked up my new Silver #9 on Saturday from Carson City Toyota, in Carson City, NV (not to be confused with Carson Toyota in SoCal). I placed my order on April 9 and the car was available on May 8 - just under a month of waiting. They said that their current wait time is generally 45 - 60 days (much better than the 6+ month wait lists in SF!) I ordered with Brian Chowanski, their Internet sales manager.. very easy to work with!! --tb
Thanks for the information. I just emailed Carson City Toyota to order a Seaside Pearl #9. Will be interested to see the response. :|
theo, michael toyota in fresno also has a 1-2 month wait for the prius. they are a lot closer to us than carson city, nv. they are charging MSRP and did not slip "extras" in the price they quoted me. -drew
the dealer i am working with in Fresno is Michael Toyota, http://www.michaeltoyota.com. the sales manager i have spoken with is Evan Schroeder. he was very professional and i am looking forward to everything working out! if it doesn't, everyone will know about it =] -drew
I heard back from Carson City NV Toyota. The wait is now 90 to 120 days. Requires a $1000 refundable deposit for color of choice and packages #3, 7, or 9.
Thanks Drew, I spoke with Evan this morning, and am on their list now. They're "only" 625 miles from me, so it's an easy day's drive there, but a hard day's round trip; I might spend the night there before coming home with my new Prius, once it gets in. javascript:emoticon('') -- Michelle
