    we just picked up our Prius C on Saturday
    We went for a vehicle in white and will be getting tinted windows next weekend.
    Our standard commute is about 10 minutes so we'll be adding about 4000 km per year to the car.
    We really like the Bluetooth connection from our iPhone to the sound system

    Welcome to the C family fellow British Columbian. I have had my tech pack (c4) for 10 months now and I love it.

    it only rains in the winter, spring and fall so
    there are a lot of sunny days here.....

    I noticed tonight the windshield wipers on the C
    cover practically the entire windshield

    we are expecting 100 mm rain over the next
    24 hours :)

    Hi everyone! My wife and I just ordered a silver 2013 Prius C with the premium technology package (or C4) last night. :)
    It was a factory order since there are very few Prii C here in Winnipeg and we wanted the right options and colour.
    Only downside is it could take as long as 3 months to get here as it's being built in Japan...:(

    our last vehicle was a minivan with a V6
    over 9 years we put 36k km on it
    me thinks the Prius will be driven more

    I had waited 6 months for my 2012 PriusC4 from Japan. So 3 months is not too bad.

    Make sure you take your C on some longer trips, it's tough to get it up to its maximum mpg in just ten minutes. Make it fifteen or twenty, and you'll see what it can do.

    We purchased our tech pack (c4) last April. They told us 2-3 months but we only waited about 3 weeks. Same colour by the way. Hopefully it won't take too long. Keep us posted
