    Guess I forgot that I'm dealing with aficionados here. I've only been a member of the Prius family for 9,000 miles..
    Just assumed it was new..
    Mulligan?

    I don't really like the Lambo doors on that Prius. But I guess it can work if done tastefully!

    It's something, that is for sure. I suspect if that picture is real, then the tuner crowd is on board, which is good thing for the Prius.

    I don't tend to like lambo doors on any 4-door car just because the doors aren't long enough, for example you commonly see the Hummer H2 modified with lambo doors and it looks even worse than it did to start with and I just dont see how you can get in and out, they're like little square doors. However, two door cars look great with them (i.e. lambos..? lol) like a C5 Corvette I've seen with lambo doors looked great, I was actually considering such a mod when I had my Honda Insight, would've just added to it's funky crazy futuristic look. Maybe if I go through the trouble to get another one someday and convert to full EV, but I'd almost rather get a Prius for what the Insights are still going for.

    Yes, awesome mods. Nice Lamborghini style conversion door kit.
    The doors move vertically and forward.
    Delorean, Bricklin, Mercedes, doors move superiorly.
    Also good looking tires/wheels. Not particularly fond of the exterior colors.
    Searching for low profile tires black/chrome wheels which will maintain a similar or close mpg. 17"-20" Maybe Scion wheels? IDK ?
    Any suggestions? With this mod, my newly acquired Prius will be ready for a roadtrip
    up the coast.
