In reply to Carsandbikes :
Compared to normal sedans, yes it's pretty weird. Compared to most other electric/alternative fuel cars, it's quite modestly styled. I had a co-worker with one and it was great for lunch runs, having a true 5th middle seat and roomy interior.
Well... I went to three dealerships, contacted a few more, drove two cars, liked them more than I had expected to, negotiated a fair deal on the old car and placed an order earlier today.
The car is scheduled to be built in about two weeks and should arrive the first week of April. Fingers crossed.
