Finally pulled the trigger paid $26200 for blizzard pearl 2013 Prius v 3 w/mats and tinted window , no trade in my finance was with credit union .
Just got mine yesterday and I LOVE it. Can't wait to get up tomorrow and drive 120 miles round trip to work. Of course I never remembered saying that before
Congratulations on your new v! Just took a trip in ours this weekend ... still enjoy it as much as the day we bought it.
Thanks so much. I decided to get me windows tinted with Llumar Star tinting on Wednesday and I will update my picture after it is done. I got a really good deal for $149 and the guy comes to my house. I was surprised!
Just walked out of the dealership. This what we got: 2013 Prius v 3 $24945 + $1495 (leather) + TTL *By the way, no trade-in. What do you think? Pretty good? Could be better?
I had serious buyers remorse and paced my living room yesterday wondering if I made the right decision, but today is a new day and after driving it 120 miles back and forth to work I am no longer pacing or wondering. Sometimes it is hard to just enjoy life. P.S. You got a better deal than me
Get the 2012 Prius Five. The power seats are worth it. Prius seats are uncomfortable to the point of impossible for many owners. Auto/On/Off headlights are nice safety feature to have with digital dashes. You lose out with tires, fancy but cost mpg and fuel, the reasons for getting Prius. The nav stuff is never worth it but fun to have. You lose out on no sun roof.
The 2012 "v" was not available with power seats...OP is undecided between 2012 "v"5 and 2013 "v"3....not certain about the 2013 having power seats..??
I just bought a 2013 Prius v five with the advanced tech package for $300 under invoice. One dealer offered me that deal on a Prius five (not v, he got confused) and my local dealer matched the deal on the Prius v that I wanted. Just as a point of reference, the Costco price (which we were originally offered) was $300 over invoice for the v and $200 over invoice for the regular Prius. DROID BIONIC ? 2
I got the similar package (v3 with leather) for 2012 model for $24900+TTL. Mine also came with seat warmer but the buttons for those are not located at same place as v5's. Did it come as standard location for you?
Best quote I've received so far is $26,187+TTL for a 2013 v3 here in PA. Also got $25,575 on a 2012 v3. Guess I need to try and hardball them to get another k off or at least a bunch of free accessories.
I got an offer last night for 2012 v Five 27900, MSRP was $30,995...am offering 26500...can you guide me with a reasonalbe offer...cash payment. from web site Heated Seats, Nav System, CD Player, Keyless Start, Back-Up Camera, Aluminum Wheels, Head Airbag, Gas/Electric Hybrid, Bluetooth Connection, iPod/MP3 Input, Satellite Radio. EPA 40 MPG Hwy/44 MPG City! Five trim. AND MORE!

Personally I think that offering between 24,000-27,000 is great. If I were you I wouldn't go in saying that you were paying cash because from my experience they are going to try to get the most cash out of you. Let them think they are financing because they will be willing to negotiate because they will think that they will get it back via financing and then once they settle on a price that you like and you have proof of it or whatever, decide that you will be paying cash for it. ... I ended up getting the 3 and I love it. Looking back, I probably would have gotten the 2 bc I really didn't need the back up camera and navigation system. But bc of the split in the back (that I didn't even realize it had bc we didn't reverse during the test drive), the back up camera is useful. And the navigation is useful if your phone doesn't have service.... And I don't know how good your credit is, but if it needs building I would suggest putting a large (10,000-15,000) down payment down, financing, make large pay offs for the next 6 months building your credit and paying off the car in the 6 months. God Bless!!!!
