    Received my UK Spec 2019 Prius today...

    No sun shade extenders, no heated steering wheel :-(

    But still lovely :)

    They did indeed, gave me centre caps too, and left the plastic trims in the boot (trunk)

    Dumb question of the day: are those nice looking alloys lurking under our goofy George Jetson cartoon wheel covers? I know they're alloys, and I'm pretty sure the covers are for aerodynamics, but I might just give up the aero benefit if those are just sitting under there. . . Assuming all this, what's the approximate highway mileage hit for removing the covers?

    Nice new car, by the way. I hope you enjoy it for many years to come.

    Yeah, the alloys under the plastic wheel covers are nice looking, IMHO. But they lack the center cap which can be found online for about $15-$20 a piece.
