    This gotta be BS right? FIrst, why would it use the old design taillights, second, how is this caught on camera? Its clearly edited and out on that parking lot... Very badly edited also... I checked out their facebook, apparently by some reason they have 600 page likes, but literally no likes what so ever on any of the BS articles they share... checked all their posts all the way back to 2016, not a single like... This got to be complete and utter BS right? [​IMG]

    They used the wrong tail lights for a Plugin, They should have used a Prime.

    Then there was that guy who did the Pontiac Pri-Am, and was considering a Cadillac Prius CTS-V. Some guy named Bill.

    @Bill the Engineer had to pack up the car when he moved and it is currently stored in a garage until the new house & garage are built.
