    Just spotted a 2010 Blue Ribbon Metalic (reason we could tell it was a 2010) parked at front and esplonade here in Toronto, Ontario. Not sure where it came from, Toyota Employee maybe?

    I thought I saw one also before I got my car but it was a 09 with the blue spectra color which is similiar to the blue metallic. Could it have been that?

    There are a few at the port of Vancouver in Riverport, Richmond so I won't be surprised if a few have been shipped across the country already. They're expected to be in the showroom by May 28 (give or take a day depending on dealer).



    Winebuff, you can do multiple quotes so you don't have to reply to each person in a separate post. Just click the button that has two talk bubbles and the no-entry symbol. Click on that and the red symbol becomes green and changes to a +.

    Julie got hers in Corvallis; I got mine yesterday at McMinnville, where they've got a Blue Ribbon II still available.

    Re: First 2010 prius in N America ? about rear seat & trunk

    My 90 yr old parents often ride with me- is the back seat comfortable and roomy enough?

    I also read that the 2010 Prius has a 21.7 cubic foot truck with the rear seat still up. Can this be true? If so it is bigger than other cars.

    Re: First 2010 prius in N America ? about rear seat & trunk

    The back seat in the '09 is roomy enough for 2 adults, no problem, and I think the 2010 is even bigger. It's true about the rear, which is a hatchback. It's quite large.

    Danny? Not only does he know someone, he knows everyone. More than that, everyone who is someone knows Danny.

    But, he still doesn't have his 2010 yet!!! :eek: (Neither do I, of course, but I'm not going to make fun of myself.)

    Everything is great. PLEASE take a break and enjoy your car . . . at least for a couple of weeks:)
    Hopefully, now that numerous others have purchased theirs, we will have other folks "share the burden (though a happy burden!)."
    Unless, of course, you are enjoying showing your baby off. In that case . . . feel free to continue with all concievable details, angles, videos, . . . pictures of your puppy driving . . . !:rolleyes:

    My sister and I just put depostes down on 2 Prius's. I will take any model as long as its in Sandy Beach ( you know, if anyone asks: "I'm going to the beach". I suppose that I will take a 2,3,or 4. Infact I'd like the leather seats after reading your post. I do want to find out how to post. I hope the rear seat is comfy and roomy.
