Poll - What color is your Prius

Darken · 05-22-2007, 05:32 PM

Seaside Pearl was the only color I wanted it in (and boy was it hard to find out here) I have to admit though after seeing it I really like the Barcelona Red Metalic too! (maybe his and hers someday)

But why oh why did they give us Seaside in the States over the awesome Spectra Blue Mica thats offered in Japan!

I voted for Salsa Red, although I have a Barcelona Red myself. I like those darker red color (Salsa Red for Prius, Impulse Red for my old Corolla)

Cross-posting w/ What's most annoying about the Prius:

IMO, Prius colors are boring as hell.

I sure wish there were more exciting choices (a la New Beetles). But oh well.
I settled for a Mag Grey simply because it was the only one that had everything
I wanted (#3 + Leather & no Nav).

Today I saw a Camry Hybrid with a beautiful banana green color that I'd much
rather have for my Prius. Sigh...

Soo...does anyone else drice an "Aqua Ice Opalescent" Prius here?

Alas, there aren't many 1G Prii here.

OK, I was really gonna flame ya, but seeing as you recognize your error in naming the colors, ESPECIALLY MINE!!!, i'll overlook it for now....

From what I've seen, the VW's colors are about the same, except their piss yellow color....

Maybe they'll get a Plaid Prius....

What if we have two Prii? I wanted Driftwood Pearl, but after waiting a while for my dealer to get one in I heard about a pricing deal that Toyota was running. Checked their website and they had only 5 listed. When I got there that night they had 3 left. I ended up with Classic Silver Metallic. But our other one is Brilliant Blue Pearl. I think the silver shows every little paint chip and piece of dirt. Wish I could paint it.

But of course! . . . What better color for an egg shaped car?

Gold, the color of choice for my wife, got ZERO votes . . . but that's the color of our Lexus SUV hybrid.
