Have you noticed that the used car pricing sites don't show the 2010 Prius?

    The other day when I was entertaining my springtime fantasy of trading in the Prius for a sports car, I decided to see what my 2010 was worth on the used car market. I checked several sites (blue book, etc.) and found prices for 2010 Camry's and Corollas, but no prices for Prius.

    How am I going to find out if I can finally afford that Porsche?

    It's because of the relatively low volume of the Prius.

    Had the same issue a while back when I was selling a 9 month old Carrera. ;)

    The official pricing of used cars will not available until it is one year old. Check back in couple of months.
    If you can afford a Porche, why care about the trade in value of the Prius.

    If you have to ask, you can't afford it.
