I'm had just booked last two weeks.
My sales advisor told me that require estimation of 3-4 months for coming since there are high demand and limited production.

White colour - 082

Hi I'm getting my Prius C Lime Pearl White this Friday book on early March. Anyone know if our Aircond come with filter?

Toyota Colour Code 082 is called MoonGlow or Lime White Pearl or Pearl White. It is different from Super White 040 or Metallic White which are mainly a single layer of paint.

MoonGlow Pearl White has a base of solid white gloss paint, then added a thin layer mix of pearly flake elements that reflects tiny multicolour speckles of light - green, red, pink, yellow, etc... Different batch mix of this second layer and sprayer gun delivery ratio would create slightly different effects - like how no two pearls are created totally alike in the oyster. Then the usual top coat of clear acrylic to smoothen and protects the paint layers. The final result is a very beautiful glistening white car.

Hence MoonGlow Pearl White colour is very difficult to re-match the original shimmery effect look and greenish lime colour hue property when you need to touch up or respray, especially accident repairs. Mostly would turn out to be slightly more yellowish hue or creamy white than the original very white base. Anyway all whites have always been difficult to match in repair jobs because a slight variation is more easier to be noticed compared to other colour shades. It is most obvious when it is the door or side panels. But thankfully not many people actually look closely ...

Locally UMW charges extra RM800 for this colour option, while in other countries it is priced the same with other metallic colour options AFAIK.

I'm getting my Prius C this coming Friday! Super Red in colour =D

Congrats to those getting their cars.
On another note, now there are two people who say their car does autolock. *cue dramatic music* Now it is confusing whether it is present or not - I could've sworn the test drive car I drove had it. I hope more prius c users come in here and can confirm whether it works for them or not and how they got it working. Anyone with the local manual absolutely sure it's not mentioned?

Prius C user manual didn't write & security alarm manual from UMW also didn't mention abt it.

Thanks for responding - the plot thickens! hehe

Update: Ok the pic was not from the prius c manual.

Mine do not have auto lock. How to get it to work? I followed the method on the first page but still fail.

Also how to bypass the DVD security feature??

I got mine 2 days back. Tinted it with agard 595 and change sport rims today at rawang.

But I found mine doesn't have autolock. Anyone can show me how to do the trick for autolock? Cos I tried the trick in forum but still fail.

Further, I notice a terrible road/tyre noise when driving. Anyway to cure this issue?

Added on May 24, 2012, 2:11 amBtw, is there any accessories shop for this car? I am looking for rear diffuser, cos from behind it looks not nice at all. And also I'm looking for visor for all 4 doors.

For the tyre noise I mentioned earlier, did anyone notice the same too? Can I do some sound dampering or other stuff? Anyone can recommend me the place and price also?

I set it for 120 uphill, and the things just works its way up to 120 for uphill drive. Even its roaring, but its soft.

Attached thumbnail(s)

I read somewhere that they mentioned tire pressure and type (width or whatever it was) could contribute to that. Some people added dampening materials to the floor/door or went as far as changing to a diff tire or pressure. Did you change tire too? What's your tire pressure?

Initially I noticed wind noise at > 90 kmh . Then again, the engine is much more silent than my old car.

For road noise at low speed <30, I also hear the tyre noise becos it EV running only.

I am not sure if its really an issue.

Unless u tukar the noisy tayar but the default bridgestones sound alright to me

U alone? Try fully loaded.

Am going Toyota now to ask them to check my rear left spring noise every time I turn and went into bumpers

Plus I also will complaint on petrol overflow out even after the petrol filler autostop

And... Auto lock as what u all mentioned

Shhh.. I am "MC" today ya. Hehe
