Friends: 0 | I went on a trip to Japan last May and took a bunch of Prius pictures, I posted them in the international section of the gallery on this site. I caught a couple of them in the wild, but I also visited Toyota showrooms in Tokyo: "Mega Web" in "Palette Town" in Odaiba, and "Amlux" in "Sunshine City", in Ikebukuro. They had some interesting displays, as my pictures show. I saw few on the streets. In Japan they have very small cars that probably get as good mileage as the Prius, so I wonder if the Prius is hard to get there or just not desireable. They didn't sell any merchandise like T-shirts at the showrooms, unfortunately, and I didn't have time to look for Prius parts or accessories. The only toy or model Prius I found was the Tomica 1/60 scale cars. Hope you find the pictures interesting.

Friends: 0 | I really liked the pic of the Prius taxi. The car looked great in bright yellow. Bet that guy saves a bunch of money on gas. Jeff |

Friends: 0 | In the posted pictures, "Prius" is written in English letters instead of Japanese characters. I wonder why? |

Friends: 0 | Wonder why the turn signals on the side of the Prius, up near the front door hinges, were left off of the US models? |
