    From a Toyota News Release

    "Also arriving in August is the new 2007 Prius Touring Edition. The Touring Edition adds several sporty exterior enhancements including 16-inch alloy wheels, a larger rear spoiler, High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps and foglamps. A tuned suspension as standard equipment will enhance vehicle handling without impacting its ride comfort. The Touring Edition will carry a MSRP of $23,070."

    Seen one? A real one? Anyone?

    True. But to me, "arriving in August" is a promise that cars "in-the-flesh" will be available for sale in the United States in August.

    But since Toyota's own news release says "arriving in August", I'm wondering whether in some corner of the continent, someone has seen one "on the ground"?

    I know they aren't here in Canada either cause I just checked. The prelim specs are out but not the brochure or the vehicle. This means it'll be a month before the vehicle arrives at dealers.

    Thank you for posting the delivery schedule. Guess you can't believe everything you read in the news releases.
