Californians of the south, please help my mommy and I buy a Prius
Do you want NEW?
because... there is one at a house by my work in brea for sale is a 2004 i think and its about $12,500 if im correct. if you want more info im sure i can stop and get the number for you.
you could save a lot of money buying used

Alright, so i've been trying to find a prius for my mom all day. Sadly, i had to deal with a slimy liar at the dealership and still don't have one. It's a long story but you'd be pissed if it happened to you too.
I am losing faith in humanity lol, but if any of you know someone directly or indirectly that can sell us a new Toyota Prius, please let me know. Your help would be greatly appreciated. We know what we want and are ready to purchase the car immediately. I just want to do business with someone who deserves our business. Thanks in advance Californians of the South!

The best way to try to get a prius is first ask if you can test drive the model/color car that you want. And afterwards you can always ask... "Why can't I have the one I test drove?" I hope you find what you're looking for...also, I hear the new insight will have folding magic seats like our fits...according to Edmunds.com and the cost for the top model is close to a base prius. Just my two cents. Good luck!

Thanks for the help and advice sirs or madames.
Thanks Nsfit. i know buying used would save a lot of money but it's for my mom and she wants new. She's been very particular about the prius she wants haha.
Thanks for the advice ToFit. Our plan is to find a dealer with the car we want in stock and at a price we can agree to, then show up to drive and inspect it; and finally, to pay and take the car home.

thanks for the help manxman! i'll ask her if she's tried using costco because if i remember correctly, she already has (and the price wasn't too great).
however, i just thought i should update you guys since my mom changed her mind this morning. the original plan was for me to go shopping around today and if we couldn't find a better price than what we had been quoted yesterday, we'd just settle for the best bargain. however, now that she knows the '10 prius is coming out in a couple of months, she now wants to wait and check that out before she makes a decision on the '09 or '10 model. sigh...mothers...haha.
but don't worry, your attempts to help have not been in vain. i'm going to keep your guys' suggestions and the dealerships/people you've referenced in mind, and when the time comes i'll utilize it all. thanks a lot everyone, i appreciate it.

ok update final update:
my mom double-crossed me today! she went to a dealership during her lunch break and bought a prius lol. but the price was EXACTLY what we were shooting for, and she even got a couple extra accessories so i guess it's all good. thank you everyone who helped.
