Prius Prime - official prices paid thread

,

 

Damn, if I got the Advanced for that price here in NY, I would have did it...

 

Umm, you should be paying much less since you're in NY. They had a $5000 rebate plus you can get more from the state. Hopefully the discount will continue this month.

 

Yes! In NY you get $5000 back from Toyota, $1100 instant rebate from the state and, of course, the $4502 tax credit from the Federal Government, add any dealer incentives to that, and you get a pretty sweet deal! Cost out the door for me was less than my 2009 Prius Touring cost new, even before the tax credit was applied.

 

Toyota discount extended to 4/30

 

Really? I just looked at Buyatoyota.com site, but $5000 rebate, in fact, any rebate is now gone for New England market. Also checked a few local dealer stocks, and they now have no 2018 PRIME, but a few 2019 models are starting to show in the lot.

 

Yes, I just checked buyatoyota using zip code 08901 (NJ), for 2018 model, it is still showing $5000 cash rebate expire 4/30. Or 0.9%APR 60 month, or $239 lease for 36 month with $3699 due at signing.

I also use carguru.com to search for 2018 model within 50 miles of 08901, found 7. Ya the supply has dropped but still some left over.

 

I'm back east looking for a 2018 Advanced and not having much luck. Penn and Riverhead in NY have none on hand. Anyone have a solid lead in NY or NJ?

 

i see 2 advanced, and 9 total in the ny nj region.several premiums still out there. i was successful finding two primes in feb /mar using cars.com to see what was available and then calling the dealers to haggle price down before i committed to drive in to buy. for second car the original dealer offered to bring a car from CT to NJ for me and match the first car pricing. there could be a few further north , if you want a specific color combo in the advanced trim try expanding the search to 500 miles, and then contact NJ dealer to do the deal.

 

ok , seven advanced on the east coast, could in theory pick the one you like and see if the dealer with the car will match the manufacturers discount in NY/NJ. they might. or get in touch with a NJ dealer and tell them the car you want and the price you wan to pay, if they will bring it into their NJ dealership for you...they have inventory guys who will do this for them. with a deposit down to show you are serious, they will get the car in for you. i did exactly that with toyota of princeton, ask for fritz, he did it for me. might not get best deal ever if they have to ship the car in at some expense, but still quite a good deal if you are getting 5k off and fed tax credit on top...depends how bad you want a specific advance, vs how great a deal you want. for the best deal , go for one thats already in the dealerships inventory. those advanced or one of the several premiums in ny nj currently.

 

I managed to find a new 2018 gray/moonstone Advanced for $28700 plus 599 doc fee and cost of any dealer-installed accesories (not sure what's included here). I'll call them tomorrow. Colorado's incentive for a new Prime registered in CO is $5000!

 

nice! all the best!

 

Well the Prime I found has damage from an accident! Passing on that one

 

The car was used and they wanted $28,700 for it? Mine new, still in the "showroom", was $29,174 before all the dealer stuff.
You originally posted it was new, I assume that was an error, not the dealer lying about the car!

 

Nope, must have been damaged during transport/unloading:

"I just received your inquiry about getting into a new Toyota Prius Prime Advanced. To answer your question, there are no dealer installed accessories. Our dealer fee is $599.00. In addition, this vehicle was in a small accident. There are scratches that can barely be seen across the top of the passenger side rear and front doors. In addition, the rear bumper has a small hump on the driver's side."

No extra charge for the damage.

 

"small accident"? Meaning someone got too close to something? In any case, not a CarFax type accident which is what I was ASSUMING.

"No extra charge for the damage" .... and no money off for it either I guess. My car came with the winter mats (which someone in So. Cal would not want but I like them, they even cover the left foot rest which was not the case with the mats for the Gen II), door edge guards and the rear bumper applique/protector.

 

Just getting my financial information finalized so soon to be the owner of a 2018 prime premium.
Hypersonic red, black interior.

Got it for 29900 and then the 5k off from Toyota. Add in the 4500 from the Feds and its a great deal. I hate buying out of state though. It is in NJ and I am in Ohio.

Hi all -

I'm looking for '18 Primes (plus or Premium) in the NE with the $5k Manu cash discount. If you have any info/tips, please post them here. Thanks!

 

BuyaToyota.com no longer shows NE region with $5000 rebate. I did see a larger dealer in Boston still showing 2018 PRIME with $5000 rebate on their website, but most of smaller dealers no longer have 2018 models in stock. You might have a better luck with NY/NJ region where Toyota is still offering $5000 rebate good until 4/30.

 

Hello, newbie here.

I'm looking for a prius prime plus in the Los Angeles area. Wondering if someone can provide some information regarding a dealership or a person to get the best price or maybe even what price I should be targeting. Thanks.
