    Well why didn't you post it then lIon? I haven't seen it before.

    I like that but how real is it?
    Is the hatch wider and tail lights narrower? Could I bring home a bigger TV?

    That's the current car with a tweaked nose and tail. :rolleyes:

    Always amazed how many people can't look beyond the light clusters. ;)

    i believe if 09 comes with a refreshed front fascia its gonna have projector headlamps, i remember seeing spyshots somewhere of a real prius being tested, it surely had projectors, from the looks of it it might resemble the front design of this car presented by the op.

    To me, it looks like the current Prius but with a few cosmetical changes like the Grill and front bumper. I doubt that would be next version of the Prius.

    I also saw that a loooooong time ago and it's not even published as a 09 model (if I remember correctly).

    Maybe I should post about the "chinese" Prius look alike then ?! ;)

    At first glance the rims look like some kind of chrome K-Mart plastic hubcap. I am still on the fence about them.

    There was something posted here awhile back about the new Prius model that was taken from a Japanese magazine. It might have been this, but it was long enough ago that I've forgotten for sure. It would probably take a bit of searching to find it at this point.
