Interesting, that looks like a 2004 post if I'm reading it correctly, and they claim the sticker on a Camry LE at that time was $22,380. On Carsdirect the sticker on an LE is now $21,320, and they will sell you one for $18,379 (with stick and $1500 rebate)... A base CE model goes for $17,728, only about $700 bucks more than a Honda Fit Sport...

Regards,
John

RE:"That's not what Toyota has said. They say they've been making money on Prius's since 2002. But, I'm sure YOU know better Jim!"

Depends how you look at the books. Remember, Hollywood loses money on 100 million dollar gross movies. They have clever accountants.

I suppose you think Detroit will make a ton on green cars right out of the box? I hope so.
