Interior fabric

brockketcher · 03-23-2005, 09:38 AM

I am ordering a prius (black) and was going to get the light tan fabric, but looks like it would be a nightmare with dirt, etc.... any thoughts.?

It shows some, cleans easily though. I've had my Prius almost a year and a half and haven't had to have any special cleaning done....and it still looks like new.

I second Evan although I only had my Prius for 5 months and 7,000kms. I think a few people around here had little accidents (e.g. grease, coffee, muffins) and the substance, whatever that may be, came right off.

my prius is black with a tan interior.... it stays cooler during the day although i use a sun reflector on the windshield.

get the fabric protection package if you're worried. i have only had a problem with the floor mats so far which are pretty easy to clean off.

Keep in mind that Evan has 3 kids so if his tan interior can stand up to that you will probably not have a problem. I also have the tan and I find it cleans up quite easily.
