Not sure about the RAV4, but I strongly doubt people are actually paying some of the markups on the Prius Prime that I've seen.
Here's a real email exchange I had about a Prius Prime LE:
Dealer: We have one in stock!
Me: What's the price on it?
Dealer: The MSRP is 30119 plus 20k, tags, and taxes.
Me: Plus 20k?
Dealer: Yes that is the mark up on our Prius Prime. It can be negotiable, but have to be in person.

That looks to me like a number pulled out of their ass as an ad-hoc out-of-state spam filter. It worked. But I see no evidence that it has shit to do with the actual price that a human being would pay to buy a new car.
HN is a big place-- anybody pay 15-20K over MSRP for a Prius Prime in the past 6 months? I strongly suspect dealers are having fun touting their spam filter numbers as if that's some kind of real car price...
