White or Silver, Pkg #8, May 26, 2006

Good for you, Jack.

That synergy to which you allude is a fairly commonly-experienced phenomenon. Some started waxing eloquent about it in 2001. Some call it the Prius Zen.

You made a smart move, test-driving like that. Heck, I would have gone on right to the South Rim!

Funny, I did the exact same thing- one year ago. Told them the package I wanted, and I would take a silver or a white- whichever arrived first. Four weeks later, Lola arrived. I would have been happy with whatever. But now, after seeing a lot of different color Prius on the road, I am REALLY happy that the silver arrived first.
Hope yours comes in on time. Enjoy!

Did Avondale put presure on you to buy any extras like extended warranty, service cantracts,ect...I am closer to Vegas but would drive to Phoenix to get a good fair dealer....Please post back on how your time frame works out.....Anyone else happy or not with Avondale???????????

 

Not about Avondale.. but I went through Superstition Springs' Fleet/Internet Department, and it was completely vulture-less. I have communicated entirely through email with one guy. I drove over and dropped off my deposit check one day, which took about 15 minutes, and every week or so he emails me slightly close options. It's been by far the easiest car-buying experience (SO far..) I've ever had..

From what I could tell, Superstition Springs was the cheapest in the Valley. $289 doc fees, and at MSRP. I couldn't find anyone below (not that I particularly expected it), and LOTS of dealers were above. Taxes are cheap in Mesa, too.

Good luck!
