    The "leaked" image that set the Internet ablaze yesterday brought up more questions that it provided answers, and that might be for a good reason. The image might be a photoshopped fake. When comparing the photo of the Prius V that popped up yesterday to the image from the Japanese mag back in May, I wondered where the gas tank door was located, and what happened to the rear spoiler that we've seen in several of the spy shots. Compare the photos below: [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] View all of the Prius V/Alpha/MPV photos here in the PriusChat Gallery: http://priuschat.com/image-galleries/toyota-prius-mpv-minivan

    All threads merge into one, and a Prius runs through it.

    Check out the vid form the 10 anniversary event, the new model in blue, there will be 2 prius soon. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JooRCM83-Yg"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JooRCM83-Yg[/ame] (called Prius Puzzle if my link dose not work) Did not see the car but one of our salesmen said it looks good, just a little longer and taller. the 10/10/10 party was a lot of fun. there are other links on here from OCPrius club members.
