    I don't think they should be there... gives the wrong impression and give the naysayers more gas for their fire. It simply wasn't designed for that.

    p.s. I would like to take mine on the track for a spin... :)

    I think any sort of car built should be able to be tracked without criticism. After all, the car culture is taking what you have, and making it better both from a visual and performance standpoint. The Prius can't stand up to a Dodge Viper or McLaren F1 but that is like having a highschool kid beat up a kindergarten kit. It would be totally fun to drive against the Leaf, Honda Civic Hybrid or any others in its class tho

    Last weekend my uncle asked if my Prius can go 100 MPH. :)

    I just don't know where people get their preconceptions about the Prius.
