Well, the sideshots are obviously compressed horizontally (hopefully!) making it look like a subcompact.

The closest I'll get to a 2010 is renting one next year, I've got a lot do with this 09.

well, unless given VERY COMPELLING reasons, my next car will plug in. so i be waiting for the late 2010's i guess...

right now, i can use my Zenn as a 2nd car, but realize the range is very limited and a change in my situation may require me to change. (i rent, so moving is a possibility) also with the jobs market the way it is, i wouldnt rule out a job change...although not likely.

but then again, there were many things i considered unlikely 6 months ago

I like how the energy and Consumption screen information are now moved to the display under the windshield.

I like the sportier look too. From the side view, the angles are pointing forward.

Hmmph. "Superior control" means a nice tight seat belt. Just ask
these guys.
.
Now, how do we teach whoever's feeding in these pictures the
meaning of "aspect ratio"? This stuff looks like CRAP. I don't
think oval wheels would work particularly well.

Maybe it was intentional, who knows. If you think about it, how do you get the aspect ratio wrong? If you are converting or importing video to a computer, most software would not get the aspect ratio wrong... unless it was changed in the setting.

The leaks are fun. However I am hoping Toyota has done something to solve the problem I have with the dash light being reflected up into windhield at night. Also, to those of you who wear trifocals, do you find that they refract and magnify that type of light in a most annoying way?

Looks good to me!! Now my wife and I just have to agree on a color. (She doesn't like the idea of us having twin cars but we like the same color).

I wonder what fool I can dump my Intrepid off on to make room for two of these?
