Today I received my Prius PLUS performance lowering springs by Toyota Racing Development (TRD), part number PTR07-47100. I am going to have them installed this weekend by Cabe Toyota of Long Beach. The install process is suppose to take approximately 4 hours by Toyota technicians. It’s also also a chance for Cabe Toyota to regain my trust as a customer. I purchased my 2012 Prius Four from Cabe Toyota of Long Beach back in May. My girlfriend and I had pretty sour experience with the sales manager last weekend while evaluating the purchase decision for a Prius C for the lady. This experience subsequently resulted in us buying a Prius C Four from a different dealership at end of the very same day followed by a lengthy updated review on Yelp.
After the operations manager read my scathing updated review, he reached out to my girlfriend and I and shows sign of dedication in regaining our trust – to which I’ve agreed to. I’m a reasonable consumer and believe in giving second chances. We’ll see this Saturday. If all goes well, all is forgiven.
I’ll post up before and after pictures once the install is complete for a side by side comparison. The springs are suppose to lower the front by 1.1″ and the rear by 1.3″. Low enough for a semi-aggressive stance but still drivable in urban Los Angeles.
