It does make me wonder why vehicle manufacturers don't make 6 door cars... it seems so practical to drive aerodynamic limos around. Imagine parking lots full of 6 door limos with raging soccer moms at the helm. COMING THROUGH!!!!

Fail on the guy who made it for making a lame car longer with inconsistent curves or fail on me for using my cameraphone? It was very real, and it made me follow this guy off the freeway. You aren't the first person to call it a photochop job, but I still don't see what is so fantastic about Priuses (Prii?) that one would want to make something... Read More ... Read Morelike this up? I think a google search on "Prius limo" will bring up lots of references. It is not the first time it's been photographed... and I took lots of pics. He showed me a little photobook he keeps filled with pics of the build process. It was boringly simple, he had one, bought a wrecked one, cut the front off one and the back off the other and stiched em back together. the middle window is the only part he told me was not a Toyota part, it's a boat windshield that he had trimmed to fit the opening. Whatever, believe it or not, it was very real. Very lame, but very real.

Oh I see, my apologies. Regardless, I can understand someone thinking that it was photojobbed... especially since the middle window has inconsistent reflections (it's wavy) and tends to lend one's eye the feeling of "incorrect proportions". Mostly I think they're awful bloody cars. Worse than appliance-mobiles, Priuses (Prii?) have a severely ... Read Moreunforgiving handling, buck-board ride, extreme road-noise, and god-awful seats. They really do feel like a shiny pinebox-derby car. Aside from the relatively decent fuel mileage, I can't see any attraction. If you want good fuel mileage and inexpensive cars, ask your VW dealership to import more Golf and Jetta TDIs and start to import the Lupo TDI.

The whole back end was full of junk. Some camping gear, some toys, laundry, bottled water... just so much stuff. I wanted to tell the guy that extra weight reduces fuel mileage, and without all that stuff, he might be able to hit 55mph on the freeway and still get 60mpg.

VERY VERY COOL

Does that come as a genuine option?
