    I am getting ready to buy a 2017 (or 2016 if any left with rebate). The car is for my wife. Funny thing is: it was down to the Porsche Macan and the Prius (I know, how could that be). Anyway, the Prius won out. The packages are confusing but my wife wants heated seats, softex, and not much more. It looks to me as if we have to go with the 4 or 4 touring to get the heated front seats. Does anyone have either of these models and can shed some light on whether they are happy. Also, my wife does not like the two tone interior so probably going to go with with a black softex interior. I know softex is supposed to be cooler than leather, but we are in Atlanta, anyone have the black interior.Any comments/help is appreciated.

    robos1020,

    Good choice, though I would have picked the Porsche!
    If money not an issue, go with the touring.
    I have the 4 with ATP, PCP, moonroof.
    Moon roof only available in the 4, so if wife likes moon roof,
    get the 4, and up grade!
    The 4 comes with 15" wheels vs 17" for 4 touring. A matter of looks.

    Touring has fogs, 4 does not.
    Your wife will like driving the Prius.

    welcome,
