Don't know if everyone has seen this yet but the pricing on the 2010 Prius has been released.
Looks like alot of new Prius owners have Honda to thank for saving them $1000's of dollars. I'm sure that these prices would have been higher if it had not been for the Insight.
Let the questions begin....
What will Honda's response be?
Will the average Joe Prius owner really see the 50 MPG numbers?
Will Insight sales take a dive because of Prius's new price point?
How much will Toyota dealers tack onto the price and for how long?
Any others?

oh, by the way, I've read an economist blog on this and on the market performance of both models. In the opinion of the blogger, the sales of the Prius can't still keep up with that of the Insight since the price that they'll have to pay for the latest model of Prius is already enough to buy a more advanced model of the Insight.
