Driving to the gym yesterday a nice looking Blizzard Pearl Gen III Prius turned right a few hundred yards in front of me. It caught my attention because it had really nice shiny wheels. As I approached it I noticed that the "Prius" nameplate on the left rear had been changed to "Limited" and the "Hybrid Synergy Drive nameplate" on the right was changed to "HEMI". I got a real chuckle out of that. Even the number plate was memorable. I woun't divulge but I bet the owner was in his "Sixties". If the owner is in this group it would be great if you could post pictures. Nice job!
"Hemi" - love it. Reminds me of last spring when we saw a VW bug at the hospital with a big, chrome wind-up key attached to the trunk lid.
Lots of vehicles have "hemispherical" combustion chambers. The emblem is just another Chrysler marketing tool to attract fools to buy their products.
Only old ones. The design of hemispherical engines ended in the 1970s when newer and more efficient designs took over. These days "Hemi" is just a trademark. Tom
