Canadian 2010 Prius Owners' Pictures

I bought a tube of Blue Ribbon touch up paint and the 4 center caps and it came to about $90 with tax, from what I remember. As for the HIDs, I should be receiving my kit in the next couple days and I will let you know if it's an easy install. If it is, you could always do the install when you take your roadtrip out to warm Vancouver.
Icy Edmonton, glad I didn't move there. I was so close to taking a job there about 2 years ago. How different life would be...

 

Getting up early might be an issue, but you're decades away from worrying about stamina. Just grab your pack and go. OK, so I could barely walk the next day. Minor detail.

 

I'm pretty sure the touch up paint pen was around $11 but once you add all that lovely tax it came to about $90 for everything. That paint pen sure is hard to use, there must be some trick to it I'm missing. It's got the Blue Ribbon on one end of the pen and clear coat on the other end.
Hyo, I'm one of those people that looks in shape but gets winded way easier than I should at my age. Maybe I should get off my ars and get some exercise before it all catches up to me! And yes, mornings are always a problem. It should be unlawful to get up before 8AM.

Maybe we should start a General Canadian Babble thread, not many owner's pics going on here.

 

Anyway, I am still trying to decipher the behavior attributes in this car but as soon as I have a set of "aha moments" I'll post the pics.

Speaking of touch up paint... I have to get a bottle as I already got a minor chip on the nose. I just hope they offer both options as I absolutely hate the pen based touch paint even if it includes the almost useless clear coat tip.

Remember the scratch on my bumber ?

I meet "the girl from Toyota" (Let me tell you that she does'nt look like the girl from Ipanema !)

- 400$ for the repairs by Toyota ! (Sanding and complete repainting of the bumper) or
- 90$ for a touch up and a lousy job !

I think I will choose the lousy job ! "The girl from Toyota" told me that the winter will be very bad for the bumper since it is so low !

 

Ouch, time to get out the black Sharpie marker! The "girl from Toyota" might be right about waiting until after winter. My dad did a number on his black Audi's front bumper after the snowstorm we had last year here in Vancouver.
I managed to scrape up the dark grey plastic under the front bumper last weekend. Tried to turn around on a steep driveway in Deep Cove and heard a nice long scraaaaape. Probably nobody else will notice it, but I know it's there.

 

Here's the result of the magic hands of "The girl from Toyota"

After


As expected, it is quite a lousy job. 99$ for that is disapointing.

I also bought a touch-up pen for 13$. Next time I will do it myself. It can hardly be worst !

Very nice. I'm glad for you Tideland.

I remember getting close to my car with the "sold" sign on it was such a thrill !

What is "the monster" beside your car ? We only see the front wheel but it looks pretty large. Is it a model from Toyota ?

 

Looks nice!:rockon:
No fog light on the Technology package
We almost got the blue until the the CEO saw the pearl she also thought we would get tired of the blue, ever notice blue cars are more of a target for birds

 

Did you get a clear bra installed?
If you did what was the price?

 

It appears to be a line on your hood?
That why I thought it was a clear bra

 

Pretty deep ditches in Alberta !
