    What is the manufacturing date for your car? Just wondering if you got the first batch.

    There are lights in the front 2 doors, under the passenger seat and on top.

    I can't be certain about your '10 ... but in our '08 that information is found on the "uppermost" sticker on the interior "frame" along the rear edge of the driver's door ....

    Julie, it is always found on the sticker. Sticker location is either on the lower drivers door or on the lower "B" pillar. Just open your door and look around.. it is right there. But I can tell you that it is built in April or May 2009. It won't have an exact date.

    Hey, I used to be that way myself, loved offroad trucks but time are changing here. We live in the woods, so to speak, but I can't think of a single dirt road anywhere near me. :confused:
    I think your husband deserves a pat on the back. God knows my wife does after all the Prius this and Prius that. :D

    Nice looking interior, but it looks gold in that light. Very sharp!

    OK Julie, if you were driving on 10th St. in Beaverton toward Beaverton Hillsdale Highway by the Target at about 12:45 PM today,, I appologize for gawking. It was the first Blue Ribbon 2010 package IV with solar roof I had seen, and I thought it might be mine. Dealer says it will be in today or tomorrow, and I thought maybe they were testing it out instead of calling me.

    Was yours a Priority order? I am curious, because I was pretty sure the options were Blue with a bisque interior, so I need to go back and check. .

    It looks that way because they wanted a pic in the dark so only used ambient light. It is a medium gray, not dark, dark

    Thanks!

    :eek: very :cool:. It looks soo business-like. I really don't remember that car looking like it at Detroit (in fact, your specification was the exact one shown at Detroit). The footwell lighting is barely visible too but it might be overpowered by the "personal lights" overhead.

    Nice! The ambient lighting is barely visible. All I see is the reflection of the LED off the shifter,

    Nope, I had to go up to Govy today and took the dog so hence, took the pick up. No dog in car yet. Are you sure it had a sunroof? Only 2 came into 5 NW states. Mine and one other for the first round. The 09 has close to the same color. I saw a 09 and freaked about 2 weeks ago, Thought it was the 10 and almost tracked it down.

    No, mine wasnt priority. Chalk it up to me being type AAA and very tenacious ;)
