    Maplewood Toyota in Maplewood MN (Twin Cities) has one Package V without ATP in dark gray on the lot, with six more coming in a couple of weeks. Don't know the colors or package options coming in but he told me that all they are seeing right now are more basic models (no sunroof, no nav, no ATP, etc.) The salesperson spoke of another 2010 when we talked earlier in the week, but it must be spoken for because it wasn't anywhere around last night.

    My test drive was only a few miles but the ECO/regular/POWER modes are great and I really like the display. It's got a 3 dimensional look to it that doesn't come across well in pictures but is cool in person. Handle - good (as far as I can tell - sales dude was in the back seat!), visibility - great.

    The Package V is very nice but I'm waiting for the Blizzard Pearl in a Package IV or V. No Blizzard Pearls in their allotment yet (insert sad face here) so I'm out of luck for at least 4 to 6 weeks! If you're less picky then me, you might give them a call.

    Rudy Luther had a Blizzard Pearl V with bisque leather + Nav. I sat in it on Tuesday Night. It is a great color.

    I'm holding out for a Blizzard Pearl III + Nav, myself.

    Patience and good luck!

    Just called and it's sold, to be picked up tomorrow. The salesperson said that he's figuring that they will quickly have a two to four month waiting list! They have a black 2010 available for test drives.

    Thanks for the tip!
