manusceo is spot on--this is an institutional and hedge fund liquidation sale. You have to be a damn fool not to see MOS as a steal at these prices IMO, especially if you have an investment window of 1-2 years or longer.

Actually the Prius is/was very affordable for many families up until the recent shortage-inspired premiums were added to the list price of $23-26K. I've seen very used VW TDIs on eBay motors for not a whole lot less than that, so robc's argument about the so-called priciness of the Prius is bogus IMO. And I personally know several Prius owners who consistently get 50-60 mpg (real miles, real gallons) in average driving.
Finally, much as I like the torque and efficiency of a diesel, the new VW Bluetecs may well hit a wall here in the US with diesel @ almost $1/gallon premium to regular unleaded gas in many areas. And I doubt they'll be any cheaper than the Prius (and likely more expensive).
