    Just purchased my first toyota, a Certified used 2012 Prius C with 15k miles on it. The deal seemed good, as it is as loaded as the C can possibly get, including the sunroof. All for about 6k under msrp of a new one.

    I have owned a few cars in competing segments, such as the Fit and the CRZ. The new C feels good, looking forward to spending more time driving it and saving some fuel. Missing my 09 fit and its gas mileage. I didn't feel like purchasing another one of the same generation. So I opted for the Prius C instead. The only thing I do miss about the fit is the dash cup holder. God those were legendary.

    Couple Pics of the old rides, and the new Prius. Have done a lot of headlight modding and plan to blackout headlight and the huge tails at some point as well.

    Just taken from a gallery on google. But its below the two circle vents on each side of the dash. Best spot for a cup holder ever. That as well as the two above the shifter.
