Got my ordered prius yesturday. Took about a month to get. Wanted white with grey and none were availble fully loaded. Level 5 with tech etc....so far the car is better then I expected. Going to see what's going on here.
Thanks, I was abit hesitant on getting this but went for it and glad I did. My buddies and some family members think I've gone crazy but they don't know what they are missing. Gonna try and be easy on the moding but see how that goes. Seen some nice moded ride here.....
There are not really any mods that will get performance gains. You've already got the 17" alloys. The Prius drives surprisingly well for an "economy" car that gets 50 mpg. We've got a IV with the 15" wheels and it's fine, although the 17's look a lot better, it's not worth the price to upgrade. The only thing it lacks is power/memory seats, mirrors, and steering wheel. You'll like it best in PWR mode and the hit to mpg is small.
For mods I meant body kits, suspension etc. I forsee myself possibly airbagging the suspension with my own setup. Body kit and that's it. Oh small molded in subwoofer. Some custom billet rims and then that's it. I'm hoping to save some money on fuel with this ride. I've been spend $80-$100 a week on just daily normal driving everyday duties. I am trying to just leave it all alone but....
I have the same color/package as you. We just wish now that we would have gotten the grey leather instead of the light misty grey. Welcome to the best car ever.
Nice combo. I wanted that same color combo initially, but since I've been driving nothing but white or blue cars for the last 27 years, I opted for something different. Enjoy your car and I'm sure after you've driven it for awhile, you'll have a good idea of what mods (if any) you'll want to spend your money on. And hopefully it will be money saved on gasoline bills.
