My dealer has an Advanced inbound soonest. Might go for the 2019 regular Prius when they hit the lot. In the mean time bought a gas hog Hybrid Highlander.
Stay away from these cars since you can't claim the $4502 tax credit. I guess legally the first owner can still claim the rebate since they bought it new and put it into service, but returned it later. But unethical. BTW, the Toyota rebate is up to $5000 in a couple states in the NE.
Look closer, it's so natural, you have likely been overlooking it. I have one of the early 2017 Advanced deliveries and mine has it. The color especially stands out when you use HUD for navigation. The large arrow will turn blue.
I have 60 of them arriving very fast now. Pre-ordered the purple carpool decals but we do not put the sticker son - that's for you to do! I have loads of base, and Premium, and a few advanced. Even a few super white premiums so you get white w/o the extra charge. eMail me for details! I cannot post my pricing here ... for ad covenant reasons! [email protected] SoCal
BTW was reading thru the thread. There's no change between 2018 and 2019 other than I can special order and get quickly a flat white color on certain models. It's not foolproof as far as "how fast I can get it" but it's possible! That said they are up about $100 between freight/base pricing increase.
