    well guys , this may be my last post to the c forum. i did it today. i got rid of shorty my c3 and got the phantom liftback II. major differences: the liftback seems huge!!! the differences in ride are quite large. while my great little c beat the hell out of me over bumpy roads, the II was quiet controlled and comfy. the inside is much quieter. whiel my little c would probably outcorner the II the discomfort is not worth it to me. the suspension on the II has come along way and it handles ok. the acceleration is much quicker at low speeds.my overall feeling for the little c is that it is not quite ready for prime time(for me). with a little suspension work and more torque it would and will be great. so my friends, ill be switching to the regular prius forum. enjoy the c it IS a lot of un. ill try to attach pictures of the phanom.

    Well no reason to say goodbye you are still within the Prius family.
    Check back from time to time and give us feedback and more likes and dislikes on the two cars.

    I think this is the first instance that I've read where a member has said goodbye to a subforum of members! Usually it's if they leave PC all together.

    There's no reason why owners of one Prius model can't check in with the other crowds.

    Yeh, some areas the roads are just too rough for the c, heck, some of the roads I have to drive over makes the regular Prius shake n thump! The HyCam would be higher on my list if I were shopping now, since the price difference is a lot closer and the ride on patched asphalt hell a lot better!
