    Hope this isn't a repost.

    Toyota restricts parts orders; Honda cuts output | AP Business News - The News Tribune
    Toyota rationing parts to dealers to avert hoarding - Drive On: A conversation about the cars and trucks we drive - USATODAY.com

    Wasn't sure whether to post here or in other cars. However, the 1st article mentions the Prius, HyHi and HyCam.

    Yeah, its gonna get bad. Ford and chrysler have notified dealers that certain colors are not going to be able to be special ordered because of paint shortages.

    Not surprised. No way you can suffer a terrible tragedy like that and not be affected longer term.
