    After customer demand for a lighter Prius, the world's best selling Hybrid car, Toyota has now announced a new lighter and smaller version.

    The lightweight design does have some drawbacks though, as the owner have to do some final assembly themselves.

    Even so, many consider the new car to be a breakthrough in many ways.

    The flat front makes it look more like an Accord, strangely. I prefer this shape more. Maybe I can grind my Prius's curves/points down to match this. :)

    ..at this time of year - it's dark most of the time... ;)

    Any Swedes around? I'll take my chances.. :

    A swede made a trip to New York and while standing in front of the Empire State building, he started to count all the floors. A policeman came by and thought to himself: "That one must be swedish" and decided to take advantage of him. He went up to him and said: "Do you know that it's illegal to count the floors on buildings in the United States?" The swede replied: "No sir, I did not." The police officer then said: "I'm afraid I'll have to charge you $10.00 per floor you counted." The swede then said: "Oh, I counted 50 floors sir." The police officer left, very happy. Then, a swedish comrad came along and asked what had just happened. His friend replied: "My, how these Americans are stupid! I told him that I had counted 50 floors when I had really counted 51!"

    :rolleyes:
