    The second page of the Prospekt document features a Camry.

    Everyone should have their own warnweste. They're just so stylish.

    I like the backpack for the front seat. Oh, and look...mud flaps. (I'd like to find the Toyota executive who decided the U.S. didn't need mud flaps and strap him to one of my wheel wells in an expensive suit until he changes his mind.)

    I want the side window vent visors.
    They look like the non tape on type and the fit in channel type

    The Kleiderbügel zur Befestigung an den Kopfstützenstreben (33 EU) and Fußstütze, 2fach verstellbar (63 EU) are way high on my wish list. When the parts guy emails me, I'll get shipping on those too :D

    I much rather have a USB/SD slot instead of a 6 CD changer

    As usual, Toyota throws everyone else the good stuff, but US customers get the leftovers, and get charged more for something that should be standard. Notice on the radios, USB and SD ports, yet in the US version, nothing, but you get to spend an extra $269 for a button and cable to do what should be on the radio.

    I'm not going to complain too much about what we are getting versus what they are getting. Sure I'd like mudflaps, the turn signals and infact I'd like the HUD. However what is interesting to me, in comparison is how "Practical" the german brochure is compared to the North American, US version. Cargo totes, storage additions, strap down additions for the roof. Even tire chains and snow tires are featured.

    No pictured mention of the Solar Roof. No green field of grass and mysterious flower people stalking The Prius.

    Seems like a very different way of selling The Prius. Elegant and Practical, while The US Brochure seems to stress Green and Gadget filled...even while we learned we aren't getting all the gadgets we could...

    Oh well, there are some things on overseas versions I'd like, but in general Toyota can just kiss my Nutzlich...I'd want a H.U.D. and turn signals on the mirrors!

    Yeah I know what you mean, like the price of Prius in Australia, that is so much better than in the USA. Only $40,000 plus on road costs here for a base model Prius. Oh and a choice of 2 trim levels and optional tech pack on each. No 17 inch wheels here. Lucky us.

    An SD port would be nice (assuming it holds the maps instead of a DVD) but I'd rather have the USB/aux hidden, both for security and looks.

    And you guys have the cheapest Priuses in the world. You can't have everything (else you'll be complaining that it's too expensive. Heck, some are already complaining it's too expensive even though the price dropped!)
