    I have four or five left. A friend has ordered one already. :) I like the red, but the robins egg blue is compellingly different.

    I like the Red, but I just had the thought, it kinda looks like a Smart Car that was rear ended, and a Prius popped out of the wreck.......:confused:
    They threw the trunk away!

    Can someone help me interpret the shifter ?
    Will hyper-milers be able to easily shift between neutral and drive?

    From the fourth image below, I was able to make out the "P" for Park in the top position, and then "R" for Reverse in the next position below. Can someone help me with the other positions of the gear-shift?
    I'm guessing the very bottom position (closest to the back of the car) is "B" for Brake, like the regular GenIII Prius. But what's the gear position in between Drive and Brake, then ????

    Okay, Park (white), Reverse (orange) , Drive (green, guessing that this is drive)

    I'm guessing the "vertical"/longitudinal/front-to-back position between Reverse and Drive is the Neutral position.
