I got mine too

Just picked up a 2010 blue II with floormats today, I traded in my Corvette and Q45 (clunker) for it. I only have 35 miles on it so far, but here are some of my thoughts.

#1 I wish the hatch would open slightly lower, I have less than an inch of clearance between my garage door opener rail and the hatch.

#2 I wish the hatch cover would swing up as the hatch goes up, I really hate having to manually open and close it each time.

#3 The fold down seats in the rear could be slightly lower.

#4 The AC is great in the car, it can cool down the car quickly. It is a lot quicker around town than the 2nd gen, but it seems to lack the sneaky quickness like the 2nd gen on the highway. I might just need to step on it more, but I am still trying to take it easy since I only have 40 miles on the car.

#5 Ride is acceptable, I would say it's close to a regular Japanese mid-size car. Engine is very quiet, love it. Tires are a little bit noisy, I would definitely get something else when these things wear out.

#6 I love the design of the interior, with the exception of the center display for the speed and everything. The material does seem a little cheap, but it isn't the end of the world for a $23K car.

I think I made the right choice in choosing the Prius to be the car that lugs around town running errands, plus my new puppy seems to enjoy the new car smell a lot. Let's see if she prefers the quietness of the Prius or if she prefers the blunt force in my sports car.

 

By the way, I only got 2 keys, a key # and the owner's manual in a rubber band. Am I suppose to get a leather book or something else? It seems too little and easy

 

I got the books, but is there a leather binder with it?

 

Two reasons why I picked blue over white.

#1 White requires constant washing and waxing. It's a pain to get the paint to not fade without constant waxing and cleaning after a few years.
#2 It's $300+ dollars I don't want to spend Matter of fact, teh dealer I bought it from stock the black, grey and white II
