How Much Should I Pay: 2010 Toyota Prius
Question: How much should I pay for a 2010 Toyota Prius IV with navigation?
Queen of the Road: Hi there. Welcome to AutoBragBlog!
Keep in mind that the price you pay all depends on the MSRP of the car you’re looking at. There’s different types of deals to choose from as well: Lowest Priced, Biggest Discounted Price, etc. It depends on what you’re looking for.
If you see a one online or at a dealership, send me the MSRP and I’ll calculate a Selling Price. In the meantime, below is an example of a deal being offered. To see the complete list of deals, average and maximum discount off MSRP and Cash & Finance Specials, go to www.AutoBrag.com.
According to AutoBrag’s statistics for the 2010 Prius,
The National Average discount off MSRP: 3.99%
The National Maximum discount off MSRP: 6.90%
If you see a particular car you want, you can easily calculate the percentage off MSRP to see if you’re getting a good deal by comparing it to AutoBrag’s discount statistics.
How To Calculate The % Off MSRP: MSRP – Selling Price = X / MSRP = Y
Selling Price = The price the dealership is willing to sell the new car for. Excluding tax, registration and dealer fees
X = the dollar amount saved off MSRP
Y = the % off MSRP (Move the decimal point over two digits to the right and that’s the percentage you’re saving.)
Consumer Cash Incentives: A Cash Back Rebate of $400 is being offered to the new car Consumer upon purchase. $400 Military Bonus Cash is available to customers with current active duty status in the U.S. Military (Navy, Army, Air Force, Marines, National Guard, Coast Guard, or active Reserve). Please see your dealer for details. Offer Expires: 3/31/2010
The best way tobrowse for a new Prius is to use the AutoBrag Car Price Search Engine.

On the left hand side there are five selections on how you want the new car prices to display: Lowest Price, Best Value, Biggest Discount, Accepted Braggles and Countered Braggles.
The first selection is Lowest Price. New car prices are displayed according to the lowest price.
The second selection is Best Value. In this mode, new car prices are displayed according to percentage off of MSRP also referred to as “discount off of sticker price”.
The third selection is Biggest Discount. In this mode, new car prices are sorted by the biggest total dollar savings amount. Keep in mind this is not the same as largest percentage off MSRP.
The fourth selection is Accepted Braggles. These prices are derived from AutoBrag users who submitted buy offers through the Braggle System For New Cars and had their offers accepted by dealerships. This information is exclusive to AutoBrag and will save you thousands of dollars and hours of time.
The final selection is Countered Braggles. These prices are dealership counter-offer prices to Braggles submitted by AutoBrag users. This information gives new car buyers an idea on what dealerships are looking for from a pricing standpoint when car shoppers submit Braggles.
