i think the headlight difference you are seeing is just from the angle of the shot, it was captured from low resolution video when it was "leaked" so some image quality was definetly lost.

That Lexus is more based on the new Toyota Avensis wich is introduced at the end of 2008:

I think the Insight looks better. If I were to buy one of the three based on looks only, that would be the one.

tuckevalastin · 01-11-2009, 08:25 PM

In terms of styling it is very similar to the Avensis but it is based on the Prius

tuckevalastin · 01-11-2009, 08:27 PM

the 2010 Prius will be officially introduced tomorrow... stay tuned

we had an '07 PRIUS and enjoyed its stay . Read that 2010 will have a choice of the 1.5 ltr. or an 1.8ltr.. The 1.5 ltr. had plenty of pep on the interstate with 3 people and extra cargo . The car would average 50 at 68 m.p.h.. One time got 99.9 miles to the gallon from the east end of city to the westside into the garage . This was all city driving and 2 people . Hit lights and traffic just right . Never did repeat it . Was fun to see which one of us could get best mileage

. The bladder that's used for the tank is a pain in the

. The rubber gets stiff in the cold and makes for long fills and hot weather the fumes make for twitchy pump

. Thus can make for inaccurate logging of your mileage , don't fully trust the onboard computer . The bladder is for less / no evaporation of gas . PRIUS has its faults , like many things on this planet . YES , we'd get another 1 if the price was right

how about 2010 TACOMA with 2.4 ltr. hybrid technology . We'd consider one as a base model .

. Then there's these all electric pickups and S.U.V.s , www.phoenixmotorcars.com . Has anyone seen one , talked to someone who drives / driven one , or drove one themself ?

If everyones so keen on high MPG, buy a 1.3L yaris next time, does better than most hybrids.

Well, the 1.5L is better anyways hehe. My 1.3L keeps me going, but I always wish for that extra power...it's wat 84HP? Sad.

gid · 01-12-2009, 03:03 PM

we'd consider buying the MITSU Colt diesel hatchback if was sold here . We had many DODGE / PLYMOUTH Colts / Champs ( '80 > '92 ) and one '92 EAGLE Summit sedan . The 1980 1.4 ltr. 2 door hatch with 4 speed manual had plenty of zip . One time we had the car loaded with 5 family members to go to an out of town BINGO night . I had to lay on my side in the hatch area the whole time . Talk about a full house . Those were the days

. Great little car too
