    djc! Welcome to PriusChat!

    Out of curiosity, did they say whether you would be getting an 04? I spoke with a salesman at Libertyville a few days ago. He claimed they have around 50 on their list and that they've been telling those interested in ordering to expect at least an 8 month wait and an 05 Prius.

    My dealer said it would be "unlikely" that I would get an '04. Honestly, that's fine. The geek in me would love to have the car now, and start working on a few mods, but I can wait for an '05.

    The risk, of course, is that the price is likely to go up. I only hope that a few quirks are worked out in the '05 model in exchange for any price increase.

    I'd love to see the gas tank issue resolved, better exterior/interior color choices, and improvements to the NAV system. I know better than to hope for a sunroof option, but that would really rock. :)

    Ha ha! I'm glad yours is on its way, too!

    I completed the transaction tonight in about 40 minutes, without a bit of hassle. Everything was set to go, and the prepwork seems to have been done with care.

    3 miles on the odomether, though. Where did they drive that thing!? (just kidding!)

    Hope everyone else gets a pleasant surprise like this!
