A cross between a Prius and… a coffin? Looks like it’s been expanded and improved from how he had it before. Via Thereifixedit.com.

Hybrid Racing: Riding Mower Smokes Toyota Prius

By Michael Berenis

Tampa Sports Car Examiner

Not all vehicles were created equal, but the Toyota Prius is definetly lacking balls to the wall performance we’ve all grown to love. You know it’s bad if a riding mower can smoke it! Read more about the hybrid racing at Tampa Sports Car Examiner.

One Too Many: Wald's Prius

By Ben Schaffer

The Real JDM

Sometimes I’m easily amused. I found this early rendering of the Wald “Black Bison Edition” Prius aero kit and I just had to comment on it. I know the Prius tuning is big business in Japan and judging from the looks of this design, I think Wald took it pretty seriously. The only problem is that I think they took it a little too seriously. It looks like they kept on adding more and more until there was simply one too many things going on with it.

The World's Ugliest Prius

By Jim Brennan

UDMan

While wondering around the SEMA Floor, and winding up at the Green Car section, I spotted this thing, and realized that it is a modified Prius. I have no idea what is going on with the nose, but I do know that the Lambo Doors are truly tasteless. What do you guys think?

Tommy Kaira and ASI Prius

By Ben Schaffer

The Real JDM

Really Japan? Has this what it has come to? All tuning news and innovation coming out of Japan seems to be either R35 GT-R or Prius/Insight. The rest of the tuning scene has very little news coming out. Can we get a little variety please? I’m already holding back on some GT-R blog posts because we have so many as it is, thats the big news these days.

Although you’ll find me being a huge supporter and fan of the R35 GT-R tuning scene, the Prius tuning scene is a bit different for me.

Dont get me wrong, I really respect the Prius (and Insight) for what they are (nature saving, efficient and affordable daily drivers). In fact I wouldnt be opposed to getting a Prius for a daily driver and if I did I’d probably be looking at one of these two companies for modifications (and Top Secret as a great third option for more simple lip kits). There is absolutely nothing wrong with the Prius and absoultely nothing wrong with making it look cool and perhaps even improving aerodynamics for better performance and economy (although these two probably worsen rather than improve Cd).
