    Ok I give up, I tilted the camera. We have had the car for two weeks. Added some Graphics for a little personality . What do you think? We think it makes it look longer. :)

    that is one shiny black car. I love black cars, but hate keeping them clean. Enjoy!

    What a wonderful name! I understand how you feel -- I've had my Bella since the 16th and still feel the joy.

    Here's mine/ours. Purchased her last week.
    '05 T-Spirit.
    High motorway mileage @ 85k, but she looks and drives like new! :photo:

    It's my wife that's driving it most of the time, as she's expecting our first :preggers:, and needs something reliable and safe. Even though she has no idea of fuel economy and such, she's still averaging 55mpg!:D

    Prius12306,

    Funny you should ask... That picture was taken after spending all day applying 3 coats of Zaino products to it. Although I have to say that even after a couple days of rain it still looks really good. I've never seen water bead like it does on that car now!

    boxer93: i TRULY don't want to "burst your bubble" as it were ... but you MAY want to look into the "warranty implications" of this plug-in conversion a bit more before going through with it. i know that MANY people have done this already, but they may not have been aware of Toyota's "official stance" in the matter ....

    you see, i was surfing several hours ago, and came across this at the Prius FAQ page ... link follows:

    25. Does Toyota support the modification of my Prius to be a plug-in Hybrid and run on electric mode only with a switch?

    Any such alterations, modifications or tampering with the vehicle voids the warranty and is likely to be counterproductive for air quality and Prius' durability and safety.

    nice color, Great shirt! I just wish I could keep mine as shiny as it was the day I got it. Been a little over 2 months with mine and it's got that nice dull look already. All it seems to do is rain here so I can't seem to find the right time to wash it. In July we had about 7 inches of rain, and usually get I think about 3, so, yes, it's been rainy. But a great car - enjoy.

    with the steering wheel on the right, where is the power button? Also, I'm impressed with the engine shot - I've never even opened my hood :eek:

    After 2 1/2 months on the list, I finally received my Mag Gray #2 on Friday night. Would have had to waited another 2-4 weeks if the original woman slated for mine hadn't decided to up to a pkg #6. Thank you mystery woman! I love it! Never owned a brand new car so I'm going to be a bit psycho about keeping it clean.

    The old 97' Passat is ready for the junk heap - 207K (though it still got the EPA 26 MPG on the highway). Got 49 MPG in the first 100 miles of driving since I picked her up. Loving it!

    Enjoy my few pics!!

    That was so much fun, she's back for more -- Thule rack, carrying additional non-guzzling vehicles. :nod:
