    We just closed on our 2011 Prius Two but it doesn't get here until next week. We are going from a Dodge Intrepid to our Prius. Love the Intrepid but was time to move on. We also have a '94 300 Z. Glad I found a site like this for the Prius. I use twinturbo.net community for the Z and it has helped in so many ways. Thanks.

    Welcome to PriusChat. Your 300Z beats out the Prius in the 0-60 performance category, but Prius beats out everything in the MPG category.

    Welcome to PriusChat. Enjoy the Prius and the Z. They are both great cars within their own class.

    I always wanted a Z but by the time I could afford one I was married and having kids :(. I did settle for a used Triump TR3.

    Thanks for the welcome everyone. I love my Z but with premium gas required it is truly a weekend car only. I love the Prius as well, just difference reasons. Kind of like asking which kid do you love more. The funny thing is that the Z's insurance is over $100 more per year than my Prius. Same coverage.

    Yes! Our car got to the dealership on Friday and we picked it up today. Winter Gray/Misty Gray, glad the wife made us wait for that combination. Everything is great except we had to take a "we owe" for the tinting because they were backed up and we didn't want to risk not taking delivery. Great drive on the way home. I'll post pictures sometime soon.
