    Hello everyone, I traded my BMW 335 for a 2011 Prius 3. I like the technology, image of the car and it's low key as well.

    I have Suntek 55% tints all around and a insert tray for the lower front console from JDM.

    welcome to the forum..
    take some time to learn how to drive the Prius..
    skills like Pulse, GLide, Coast and Brake are a little different from your Bimmer.

    there's a ton of youtube videos that will show you how..

    just drive it... most people who get the pulse glide concept wrong tend to drive too slow and get worse gas mileage anyway... (all the annoying idiots in the right lane... love you guys.. don't take offense.. or do....)

    i used to have a 3 series bmw... it really is a different car.. the bmw was joyful to drive in a sporty way... high anxiety... the prius is very calming.. very smooth.. and overall a great car. (low key is great too... but everyone thinks they can pass you whenever they want... i love proving them wrong)

    Looks sweet! Same color as mine. What do you think of getting the shark fin antenna? I just ordered that and thinking about tinting the windows. Where did you get your tray??

    The shark antenna looks very cool. Does it do anything to the radio reception?

    I got the tray here: JAPAN CARMATE JDM 9-11 TOYOTA PRIUS USEFUL TRAY ZVW30 | eBay

    Thank you all for the great welcome.

    whether i'm driving the RX 350 or the Prius Four, i'm always on the 2nd to the Left lane ( 4-5 lanes here in SoCal).. but i do get that " Oh he's driving a Prius, let me show him what this baby can do attitude"... usually from Bimmer owners.:D
