    If anyone knows a dealer-principal at a Toyota store you might be able to get a first hand account of what the new Gen3 Prius is all about. It was shown to the dealer-principals at the recent national dealer meeting. My guess though it would be like pulling teeth to get anything more than 'it's going to be really good'.

    Yeah it's mostly "here's the car, how do you like the looks?" I don't think any specs were given.

    I would of liked to see a picture of the back end!

    The console in the middle will make people feel closterfobic.

    I sure hope they put nicer carpet in the new prius. better cloth seats that have some styling to it.
    A nicer seat adjusting mechanism. These cars are not cheap!

    The front needs the lower grill chromed and the side of the prius needs a Chrome door molding for other car doors that my hit it.
