2015 Prius Persona

A lot of people here are saying OTD, but I'm not sure they're including taxes and fees. Anyhow, I purchased a 2015 red Persona back in late June for $22,000 ($23,438 OTD including 3% state tax). I'm in North Carolina, so I can't speak for California, but I think I got a pretty good price. I think you'd be able to haggle with some dealer to get you closer to $22k. I contacted 4 dealers via email, but only one was serious about working with me. It was probably due to the fact they had 3 Personas on their lot and they weren't selling after months on the lot.

That is definitely North Carolina pricing. No way you can get that kind of pricing in California for a Persona. 22k is basically the MSRP for a Prius II. You got a great deal. If someone has, I have not seen it in this forum.

 

No, it is not "plug-n-play". However, it is very easy to install and simple to wire. I highly recommend it.

I ran the wire pushed up into the front of my headliner, where it meets the windshield, and down to the drivers side kick panel fuse box through the A-pillar. I wired it into a circuit that is only on when the car is on (I forget which exact fuse). Either way, from start to finish, this took me 15-20 minutes. I am lost without my homelink (Own 2 homes, 1 cottage, and my business garage door!)

 

The best homelink mirrors I had were the ones on my Chevy Tahoe and Silverado. It had all the regular homelink mirror functions and had a built in compass in the mirror too. A compass is a must have in a car........I can live without navigation but a compass is a must.

 

I just bought this one for $23K off the lot, no sales tax here

 

beautiful! welcome and congrats.

 

Remember Persona group is very exclusive.

 

.......I would hope so!

I was insulted by the price of new trucks so I kept my old Tacoma and bought the Persona. I have dubbed him Enzo. (The truck is Spencer) I really (really) like the car.

 

Get rid of "The Badge". It will look a lot cleaner.

 

Getting rid of the badge was going to be my 1st question!

.......the back of my rigs sport this

 

If you're going to get rid of the persona badge, why not take them all off? I want people to know it's a persona. If I'm taking off badges, I'm taking them all off...I might actually do that soon.

I don't want to pay to get the holes filled in if I were to removed the other emblems.

Someone here once looked into it and it was expensice. Not worth it in my opinion.

 

Oh damn, I didn't know there were holes. I thought they were all stuck on with 3m tape. Well that makes my decision much easier.

Is the Persona badge held on with tape??

It's the look I've always liked. When I had my Tacoma painted the kid took off all the badges & such.

 

Ouch.. the prices really dropped since 2013 when it first came out.. the other factor is Prius sales in general are not as strong neither.

 

I paid $23.500 plus NJ tax for Persona White

 

I hear ya there, brother!

 

love to get another one for $22k or lower since the fugly 2016 are here..

 

Better hurry on that purchase! There might be a run on the left over 3rd Gens, now that the 2016 4th Gens have been "revealed"!

 

Hmmm, back in March I paid $23k for my '14 Prius II, that was the best deal I could get in Waco. They did give me a pretty excellent trade-in though on a Focus that was completely spent.
