    Can anyone kindly tell us what's special about the 10th Anniversary Edition?

    TIA!


    Edit: Ok, using illustrations, I've found a few things. It's available in 3 colours - Super White Pearl, Some sort of silver and some sort of cool light blue (almost baby blue).

    You get HIDs, Hard-Drive-based Nav system with VICS and G-Book services, VSC, IPA (auto-park), SKS (I think the Japanese still says Smart Entry & Smart Start?), and a cool box with a "Prius 10th Anniversary" plaque on the cover to keep your smart keys and leather wrapped steering wheel?

    Any link to the baby blue version? If I can get a baby blue like the 66 Caddies, or the Sonic blue Stratocaster, I want one!

    P.S. The 2007 Owner's manual is not all that bad--I've seen a lot worse!

    The Welcab would be great for my father who finds it difficult to get into regular sized cars. He used to be 6'5" prior to his spinal surgery now walks with a cain and has limited mobility.

    So far, only the Sienna has the "Welcab" option (I think it's called Mobility in NA) here in NA, or at least in Canada.

    The Estima also has it. :)

    This feature should be a big hit with Baby Boomers. I'm surprised it's not mainstream here yet.

    When I was 9 years old, my Father came home with a brand new 1967 Cadillac Eldorado in Sky Blue. It had a black vinyl top and a black interior. That color was VERY cool.

    It looks like the rear hatch and windows are tinted also.

    My SO's translation (as before):

    http://toyota.jp/prius/anniversary/
    In 1997, the Prius made its debut as the world's first mass produced hybrid car with the tag line "we pulled it off before the 21st century". Since then, thanks to the many owners in the 45 countries, we have sold 650,000 cars. Now to express our gratitude to our customers, we will present the "10th anniversary edition". We have put many thoughts into comfort and safety such as HDD navigation system and discharge headlights.

    http://toyota.jp/prius/anniversary/sp_equipment/
    Special Features:
    Discharge Headlight
    4 Point Spoke wheel with real leather
    HDD Navigation System (
    __<audio>CD, MD, AM/FM radio, TV, Sound Library, 6 Speaker
    __<others>
    ____High Resolution style 7 Wide Display (touch system),
    ____FM multiplex VICS,
    ____G-Book Alpha compatible )

    Smart Park Assist (the system will assist in the steering when parking in garage or parallel parking)

    Smart Entry and Start System (leave the keys in your handbag, and touching the door handle will open the door. Pressing the Power Switch will start the Hybrid System.) *warning* Implanted Pacemakers may be affected by this system. Do not let the pacemaker get to the car's receiver within 22cm. It may stop the pacemaker, so contact your sales person.

    Cruise Control (This will allow you to drive at a constant speed without stepping on the pedals. Valid for 40-100km)

    S-VSC Steering assisted vehicle stability control. (It will detect when slipping, and adjust each tire's braking pressure and the engine motor. It will also assist with the electric power steering)

    Illuminated Entry system
