Here is the front of a Prius shirt printed on an unbleached T-shirt. The front features the power button only it says "Start". If you want one, you can probably find a t-shirt on ebay or you can check a few of the Toyota parts suppliers in the Links section. The shirts are starting to become harder to find than the keychains, so if the suppliers are out and you find a buy it now on eBay...buy it now.

The back of the shirt features a little poem Prius Start Now. There was also a polo shirt and a baseball cap with Prius embroidered on them in green. They were only available to employees and are very rare. |
 |
Here is a shirt custom made for Toyota of Berkley. I think the sentiments are fabulous.
Evolve. We dare you.
Printed in green on a natural cotton T-shirt. |

Here are the Keychain tags. This reproduces the emblem on the back of the Prius. The front says Hybrid Synergy Drive and if you look you can see the "H", the "S" in a light blue enamel and then the "D". Very stylized. The back says Toyota Prius. If you want one, you can probably find a keychain on ebay. Last I looked, they were running around $20. I suggest you use a buy it now if you find one. Otherwise they often bid over the buy it now price and you missed your chance. |

This is a white baseball cap with the Hybrid Synergy Drive logo embroidered on it. The blue wave is also embroidered on the bill. Inside the sections are covered with tape that reads Hybrid Synergy Drive. The back has Hybrid Synergy Drive embroidered above the strap and Toyota embroidered on the strap. |  |
Dark blue denim baseball cap with Prius embroidered on the top and Toyota trimming the bill. The inside seams are covered with tape that reads University of Toyota and the back is embroidered with Toyota on the strap. |
 |
This is the same size as the 1/60 models. The trunk lifts up like those cars. This car advertises the Hybrid Energy Drive and looks like it's a model of a sports car. |  |
This is also the same as the 1/60 cars with the lifting hatch. This includes a sheet of decals you can apply any way you want. I believe this is a model of a car displayed at an Expo. |
 |
These 1:60 scale cars are put out by Tomy but say Tomica on the bottom. They can be purchased on toy websites and those that carry diecast models. I bought these on eBay. The boxes are printed in Japanese so I have no idea what they say. The hatch opens. They come in silver and blue only. (At least so far.) They are model #106. There is a classic model #86 available in other colors. |  |
This is another 1:60 car. This one has a road sign. I also bought this on eBay. Since my car is black, I'm always on the lookout for a black prius model car. I saw a great one that you pull back and then let go and it speeds away, but there wasn't a black one and I have no idea where to find one. If you know...please let me know. I 'd love to have one. |
 |
This is one in a series of twelve keychain Prii, one for each symbol of the Zodiac. this one is Scorpio. I have no idea where to get the others. While I'd love to have a complete set, right now I'd like to have my sign: libra. |  |
This 1:30 scale car was given to purchasers in Japan while they waited for their 2004 model year car. They come in all of the 2004-05 colors. You may find them on eBay. Most of those offering them are in Hong Kong which may be where the models are manufactured. Or these may be knockoffs. If they are knockoffs, then the supply will continue. If not, they will become harder and harder to find. I bought black to match my car. The bottom does say Toyota official licensed product. The doors open. |

This glass is pretty rare to find. I think I bought the last one from the Toyota parts website I found it on. It is recycled from a wine bottle and has a stylized swirls and a leaf. It has Toyota Prius on both sides. One side says "protect the earth" and the other side says "proteja nuestra tierra". Unfortunately it does not fit in the cup holders, so it lives at home in a place of honor. |

The Prius That Shook the World: How Toyota developed the world's first mass-production hybrid vehicle. This book, by Hideshi Itazaki (translated by Albert Yamada and Masako Ishikawa) chronicles events leading to the unveiling of the first generation Prius at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1998. 387 pages, paperback. No longer available. |

Here is a great cloth notebook bag with Prius embroidered on it. I think it may have been available to employees only. It has many pockets, a handle on the top and a shoulder strap. It also has straps to use it as a backpack. Holds a good size binder very well. Very handy. I keep it in the cargo area where it holds the notebook I carry all of my Prius information in. Why do I carry this stuff around? You'd be surprised how many people stop you in the parking lot and ask you about your Prius. |  |
Here is a pen that lights up and says Prius. I have no idea how plentiful these were or if they are still available. |
Who says you can't beat the EPA?
