    Thanks Starla

    I like this forum, a lot of friendly people here :)

    I'm driving it already few days, what I'm suppose to notice? :eek: I don't feel anything, car a bit anemic, something else?

    Anyway, my first impressions:
    This car despite it's rather masculine name is very feminine.
    Too soft to be a man. :oops:

    Other things I like:
    No London centre congestion charge (GBP 5 per day).
    Quet , sometimes very quiet - is it the stealth mode?

    Good night...

    No -- the Toyota Starlet is a "chick car". :D

    Prius still beats the Ford Aspire, Hyundai Equus, Mazda Familia or Mitsubishi Canter for names, if you ask me.

    (Not to mention the Mazda Scrum. :pukeright: )

    Thanks! This makes me feel a bit better. :)

    I mean, the word, P R I U S, after all, consists of 5 letters, begins with "P", and ends with "S". How can it possibly sound feminine? :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Don't you guys know a troll when you see one? Perhaps you're out of practice because of priuschat's (until now) lack of them :)

    Boys, I see you're exited - and I like it that way :D

    Nevertheless, read my message again.

    Despite its masuline name, this car is feminine.

    This is my subjective personale feeling.
    To be masculine, in my view, car has to have a character, to be a little bit brutal, if you wish.

    I do not see it in Prius.

    Its character is rather soft, relaxed, geeky.
    So far I'm comfortable to drive it even it lack some necessary spice.

    I think it's very good car for girls and moms.

    But if I'll see a gutty in this car I'll think he's homo or geek or both (or unisex like paulismo and Tempus)
