    I would like to address the main points people are making about this "photoshopped" car... It used to be 2 different cars, hence the slight seam in the car. I have no idea about the liscense plate... probably just a camera discrepancy. Another fact about the car - the middle windows don't roll down. I'm not sure why, though :) Btw... The owners of this car live in a smaller suburb of Los Angeles, so whoever said they spotted it at Disneyland, was it around June 21st?

    Why two antennas? Re: Prius Limo???

    Just went through the entire thread but I can't seem to find any explanation for the two antennas?

    I read most of the posts here but didn't seem to have any clear pictures of the Prius Limo. Here are some I found on a Japanese site (Yes, kinda an international phenomenon now)

    Here's a picture of Prius limo number two. Being white, and knowing Steve Woodruff's penchant for naming the cars, this one's likely already been dubbed 'Moby'. :)

    Wow, I'd love to come see that. I'm not too far away in Louisville. I joke with my friend that has five kids that he needs to get one of these and sell his behemoth van. He is selling the van, but it's too bad there aren't more of these around for a family his size.

    For old times sake I wanted to shout FAKE FAKE FAKE!!! No one is ever going to replace the antenna with a boat, c'mon!

    Most of the people are looking to modify their Prius do so in order to extract even more fuel economy from the world's most popular hybrid. They undoubtedly aren't a whole lot of mechanically inclined Prius owners thinking limo, The custom 10-seater was hacked at the middle, re-formed and re-stuffed, and welded back together. Please produce some more attachments about the topic to view detail information.

    Perhaps hybridfest 2012. And to be clear there are two different cars and two different builders.

    The trip is well worth it. I made the trip once and drove away in my '06 Prius (rebuilt by Steve) and I never looked back. If you see his shop, you will know he is definitely a Prius expert. I wouldn't buy a salvage car unless it was from him.
