//2014 Prius 2// Asking Price: $15,500 I negotiated it down to price: $13,500 CPO Mileage: 47,000 Previous Owners: 2 Carfax: Completely Clean *no backup camera //2015 Prius 2// Asking Price: $15,850 *haven't tried negotiating CPO Mileage: 46,000 Previous Owners: 4 Carfax: Completely Clean *Backup Camera Included The backup camera is a big deal for me. With my financing, I'd only be paying $50 bucks a more per month to buy the 2015 which includes the backup camera that I really like, but don't feel it a necessity.
I'd negotiate the 2015 to $14,500. $1000 for one year newer seems fair. There is a thread here to add a backup camera from Amazon ~$100 + installation. So if you really wanted it, you can still do it. I have a backup camera. It's not really necessary but it's really nice to have. So I'd be will to take the 2015 for $1000 more but if they won't accept, I'm fine with the 2014.
That's my first thought, too. I wouldn't want to be the 5th owner on a 3 year old car. Way too many single owner cars out there. My Prius is the first car that I've owned with a rear view camera. I never knew what I was missing before, but I won't be able to live without that feature in the future. Plus, the visibility in the Prius is terrible, so the camera really helps.
