I love my Prius but I seriously considered the possibility of selling it (I have the title as part of our mortgage) and buying a 2006. I figured I could come close to an even deal since there's the $3,000 tax credit and that though I have 10,000 on mine, it would still command a very good price selling it privately.
However, what apparently puts the kabosh on this is that to get the combination of HID headlights and VSC--2 very desirable features for me that were included in the $2,000 Package #4--for '05, you'd have to go to Package #6 which I believe is around $5,000 (the price is hard to tell because when you price a Prius at Toyota.com, they ask for your zip code and then the available option packages become "Combination B", "C", etc.).
