    Hello! Wondering if there are any people in Japan on this forum?

    I am debating between getting a regular Prius or the Prius G's edition (only available in Japan). Things I love about the Prius G's is the G's edition seats, carbon fiber interior trim and CF shift knob as well as the rims and front bumper. It also comes with performance lowering springs. So I figured for an extra $2K, the Prius G's is well worth it.

    Your thoughts?

    This is the best video (not mine) showing the car in detail both inside and out:

    Thanks for your response! I was wondering if the G's edition is worth the extra money vs a regular Prius.
    With all the added modifications for only around $2K, I'm leaning towards the G's edition.
    Your thoughts?

    Wife wants an alpha but not sure I want a "wagon".

    Whether or not the G's is worth the extra money is up to you. You get a more aggressive look, sportier handling and a G's interior.
    If you were to buy a regular Prius and customize all those parts I'd imagine it would cost more than 2K.
    I went with the G's because I like the G's look and I couldn't be arsed to spend the time and money to customize a regular Prius :whistle:

    Unless you need the extra trunk space I wouldn't choose the alpha. But they do make an alpha G's as well ;)
