Those should improve it's not so good performance on side-impact.

Correct me if i'm wrong.

Bigger rear spoiler
Front spoiler
Side skirts
Rear lower spoiler
Cool new rims

Basically everything on the top of sigma prius website.

I think this is what other countrys have already and there might be more. I've been looking at the Jap prius for a while now. I'm trying to convert mine.

I plan on getting the larger rear spoiler and the front spoiler to upgrade my 06 to a simi touring car

 

Aha, an "edition" to counter the car's primarily-urban image?

GOTS to have adjustable seats to make people think "touring". But sounds like we may have to buy a few thousands' worth of other stuff to get 'em.

 

So when will the 2007 model arrive in California? Will the 2007 still get the tax credit given it's either under 60,000 or one quarter after the 60k?

 

Can anyone translate Japanese? Here is the Japan Touring car options web page.

Japan Prius Touring car.

Here are my guesses of what the pictures are.

Left to right top to bottom.

1. HID or killer laser beams???????
2. The cool new rims.
3. Bigger rear spoiler.
4. Lower rear color spoiler. I'm guessing this will also include the front lower spoiler and side skirts.
5. I have no clue on this one because of the small picture but i'm going to guess anyway. Its some kind of spare tire compartment storage? or something to fuel the killer laser beam above.

[edit] I take back what I said about number 4 about the front lower spoiler and side skirts. I found package A on the site as a seprate package. Maybe number 4 is something else?

Sounds cool. I was reading through with bablefish and seen where they have the run flat kits and thought that might be it. What about number 1 and number 4? I hope number 1 is the killer laser beams.

I would also like to see that really deep bright blue color they have come to the states. I would love to have that blue for my car.

1. HID head lamp (with auto-leveling feature)
2. 195/55R16 wheel and tire
3. longer rear spoiler
4. rear bumper spoiler, black one (I believe it is a standard in the US)
5. puncture repair kit with air compressor (no spare tire)

Thanks! I could not tell what number 4 and 5 was because of the small pictures. I'm disappointed that we dont get killer laser beams.

 

Concerning the Airbags, in Portugal we don't have the option. All models come with courtain airbags and torso side airbags. So it's a standard here already. I only had to choose if I wanted the Value Pack or not (GPS, Cruise Control, JBL Radio and Keyless entry).

I'm sure you meant nothing by abbreviating the word Japan but those two extra letters make a big difference. Just ask my grandparents who were interned in horse stalls during WWII which didn't stop him from joining the 442nd and later the MIS. Just sharing. Thanks.

 

Oh man I love that blue, hmmm wonder if I should wait???? Also I think alta vista can translate pages.

 

Yeah it sucks we dont get that blue color. I was actually thinking about getting the Insight because it came in a nice blue. I decided on the Prius because of all the cool features like EV mode. I do like the Barcelona Red. I think that it and the silver are the only colors that really looks good for the Prius. I think all the others colors are dull. I want someting that stands out like bold colors. Bright yellow, Blue, Red, ect...

 

bumping fofr me

I certainly believe that the Silver Pine Mica prominently stands out. The car definitely gets the attention and it's a unique color.
