Know of anyone who wants a 2010 Prius for $148/mo?

the original poster/seller of vehicle hasn't responded in over 10 days so it may be sold, but for the sake of argument...

- $3,704 down = he wants $4,000 minus $296.11 (two payments that he'll pay)
- $4,591 = 31 payments to be made by new owner
- $16,000 = residual
- ($1,444) = desirable aftermarket options

$22,851 = total cost to new owner

IMHO...probably a good deal for today's overpriced market

 

Hi Avocadoman,

Thanks. Yes, I agree with you on all counts - 10 days, its probably a done deal, and it does pencil out as a pretty good, relative deal. I'd think the lease company might see some value in getting their money now instead of over many years and discount for cash.

I see you have a salvage title Prius. You're either very knowledgeable or very brave.

Take care

I'll take it at $2500 down if that would help. How much per mile over? It's usually 20 cents. It is easy to go over by 10%-20% unless used exclusively as a conmuter. Let me know. Thanks.

 

In December, brand new package II was going for $20600 here....

 

that was pre-tsunami and when gas was under $3.
funny how times have changed in less than 6 months, huh?

fortunately, once Prii inventory is increased and the general public accepts the new reality of $4+/gallon gas, new and used vehicles will be plentiful.

but it could be another 6-9 months...

 

Good lawd. Now a 2010 with 20k miles costs $23k.

 

Sounds like you made out pretty good!
