    Toyota's website is missing the Prius V in the "Build Your Toyota" section. What's up Toyota ???

    Also, the website has for the Prius IV interior color mis-labeled as Sand Beige, but on the Prius II & III it's labeled correctly as Bisque.

    Time for some updates Toyota . . . :mod:

    Maybe it is not available in your region. Try changing the zip code to another state.

    This past weekend blizzard pearl wasn't available for the Redondo Beach zip code. Does anybody really believe that?

    My ZIP code is 75287. I'll try another local ZIP code.

    The problem isn't with Toyota. The problem is with Gulf States Toyota (GST), the regional distributorship who handles Texas. They control the Build Your Toyota page for our zip code. In fact, if you look closely at the title on the web page, you will see that it says "GST Build Your Toyota."

    GST is importing a small number of Prius V's - they just aren't showing them on their web page.

    If you want a Prius V, talk to a sales person at your local dealership (or more than one dealership). They should be able to send in a dealer preference for you.

    I know that GST is importing Prius V's because I got mine about a month ago.

    KSnBigD, The issue is not your Zip code or using another local to you zip code. You need to use a zip code from a city that is not in your state and not in the Toyota designated region serving your potentially multi-state regional area. --TK
