Pictures of my new Prius

Last night I went to my dealer and saw my new Prius for the first time. It still has window tinting to be put on it and detailed but here it is. Tuesday 29 August is my pickup date, can't wait!!

Why isn't there a "Cool guys with a black Prius" club??!??

woot! Congrats! That looks sweet esp. with clear corners.

Take it back quick! They got the steering wheel on the wrong side!

Other than that, it looks beautiful!

Hey I'll trade you. I want one with the steering wheel on that side.

I was just going to say that, LOL!

Beautiful car! It'll look even better once you get the tint put on it. The black Priuses look so sexy with a nice tint job (perhaps I'm biased).

So you have another ~4 days until you get to drive that baby off the lot, eh? Betcha can't wait!!

Hey, you could start a Cool Guys in Black Prius Club...

Something that doesn't change with left hand/right hand drive is the 60/40 split rear seat. I like the right hand version better, because you can fold down the passenger seats on the left side, carry home your long load, and still fit two people in the back. As for a club name for the boys with a black Prius, I think I'd better stay out of this one. I've caused enough trouble with the black prius chicks and the red hots already.

Congrats. Black is a nice color. I would have gotten that had I not been in El Paso.

Congratulations!

Wow, your power button is in a really weird place. Southern Hemisphere though, right? Everything rotates backwards.

Is it in a shop for mods already, before you've even worn out your complimentary seat covers?

I hadn't thought of that. Not only does the steering wheel/side of road change in other countries but you suddenly have to become left-handed. Over here all the left hand is good for is hanging on to the steering wheel. I'm not sure my left fingers could do all the stuff demanded in this car. A lot of training needed!

Patient: Doctor, will I be able to play the piano after the operation?

Doctor: Of course.

Patient: That's great! I never could before!

(Don't know why I was reminded of that.)

Wow the graphite leather interior is such an improvement...
