    My wife and I just got our brand new Prius on Wednesday. Our family is going to be soon expanding to 3, and the 1997 2-door Sunfire needed an upgrade! Never having bought new before, we did lots of research and found the Prius to be the best option for meeting all of our needs and wants.

    Part of my research involved the forums here, so thanks to everyone for their posts. There seems to be a wealth of information here, and lots of people who are very passionate and knowledgeable about this vehicle. I'm looking forward to learning more, and hopefully contributing someday!

    Yes, lots of good info here - welcome to PC! We'll look forward to hearing about your first impressions, and questions that will surely pop up. Prius is no ordinary car!:D

    Thanks guys. Baby isn't scheduled to arrive for a few more weeks - I'll put up a photo of the baby in his/her carseat once the time comes.

    As for colour, we've got the Silver Pine Mica, and are very happy with it so far. Although it is more white today as it has been blizzarding all weekend ;)

    Welcome! Glad to see another new joiner to the SPM club. I don't know that the Prius is found in a bad color (iffy paint job, maybe), but I'm pretty certain which color I prefer.

    Post pics (of the car, also).
