Prius Owners: How Long Did You Wait?

Created May 19, 2006, at 3:06 am by Anonymous

Have been on a waiting list to buy a Prius in So Cal for about a month. Am being told it may be another 4-8 weeks until my Prius comes in. To any Prius owners out there: How long did you have to wait for your vehicle?

Thanks for your time,

I am in the Fort Lauderdale area. We bought ours out of dealer inventory the night we went to test drive it. Several other dealers in our area had them in stock as well. A couple of others said the wait would be about 2-3 weeks.

We also paid MSRP (many dealers are adding on several thousand dollars over MSRP).

Love the car!

Elliot,

When you say out of "dealer inventory," what does that mean? Did you buy it before it arrived on the lot? How long did that take. Thanks for responding!

We put down our deposit in late Jan 06 here in Northern Calif (they had told us the current expected wait time would be 4-10 weeks). However, that was extended and we finally got our car in May 06.

I lucked out and got my Prius the day I test drove it in Roseville, CA. They had just sold the last waiting list car and had one left, I test drove it on my lunch hour, had them hold it, which took tons of convincing, and went back after work and signed the papers. I love my car!

I put down my deposit on a Monday and by Thursday I had my Prius. I was told I'd have to wait 3-4 weeks...but luckily, an exact model got diverted to my dealership. Shear luck...
