    Get no packages and paint the roof high gloss black so it "looks cool".

    Now why in the hell are both available in Canada and not in the US? Since we both live in North America, aren't they virtually the same exact cars??? I don't get it.... you really spun me up on this one! :)

    Read again. We don't get the 17" alloys and moonroof in the same package.

    Right, but you get the option to get the solar package along with the tech package, which is what I would like to have! The best of both worlds!

    I'd like the LED headlights and the power moonroof. That'll be nice.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. Between the two countries, we can satisfy a good 90% of the buyers lol.

    Some want the solar without nav. We have solar without nav. Others like you want the solar with tech and that's what we have. I'd like a Prius V which is what you have haha.

    this is off topic

    but does anyone know how much added weight the sunroof+solar adds.

    It adds a lot of weight to the bottom line of the purchase order.
