    spwolf, the <"combination meter" mpg info is 3D, projected in front of the driver> you mentioned, is it in one of the pics in the center cluster or is it something totally different? I didn't see anything directly in front of the driver in the pics.

    I really do like the look of the car both in and out. The back looks different than I thought it would, very much like ours now in a way. The interior i really like.

    oh, its slightly 3D, projected by an inch... like in European Yaris. Nothing big, but thats why it looks in the photos as if it is going over A/C options...

    Ah, gotchya, I see what you mean. That still is pretty cool, I'm really looking forward to seeing it in person.

    Thanks again for the pics :rockon:

    I am at the airport on my way to Detroit. Seeing these tiny pics on the blackberry doesn't do justice.

    NA... crazy...

    Looking at closeups of interior, and this looks like expensive/lexus interior... sides of the trunk are carpeted now... Lets hope it wont be priced as Lexus :).

    I will post more pics soon once i resize them and upload them.

    The blue one is a base model... you can see hub caps and the lower end headlamps (halogen or HID) and it doesnt have the plasmacluster on the climate control screen.

    The silver is higher end, navi, plasmacluster but weird they used the low end model to show the sunroof.

    I still wanna see solar panels to confirm for sure we'll get em lol.

    Spwolf -

    Thanks very much for the pics. Send more. I really like the interior layout (instruments, buttons, etc.) It looks very ergonomic.

    Wow! Very nice! I like. :)

    I was thinking the same thing. I'm glad to see that the Prius interior looks much better than the previous Prius interiors (not that the others were bad, but it's always nice to have better).

    Now, I'm just hoping as much of what we see as possible will be standard on all models. :)

    Enjoying the 10 new pics on your link spwolf, nice to finally see the interior high res.

    I like the shot from the back with the hatch open and the seats down.

    Is there a reason why Toyota suddenly changed its menu interface on the OEM navigation system to a more grainy/b&w/ugly grey on all of its models?

    Oh, and is it me or does the rear look especially flat (unlike the current Prius)?
