I committed to a new Classic Silver Metallic model this week. I'm in no real hurry since I have another car payment until April 06. After researching on this site for a month or so, I knew way more than the salesman. He kept looking at 05 packages. I went with 06 package #4. They indicated a wait of 4 to 6 months, with an update every month. I hope that I get the full tax credit. I drove an 04 white Prius yesterday (belongs to a colleague at work), and this confirmed that I was making the right decision. I really appreciate everyone on this forum and the outstanding information available here. I'm now planning for the accessories and modifications that I discovered on this forum. Steve
