RECEIVED MY NEW 2008 PRIUS - SPECTRA BLUE

Blue Hoosier · 09-27-2007, 10:02 PM

Last week we got our new 2008 Prius, Package 3, Spectra Blue....the color is fabulous!!! We love it

It is going to be hard to keep clean, but the color is well worth it. We have been putting on the new mods and getting it ready for our vacation trip to Florida. There have been other Prius owners honking on the interstate (there's not that many Prius' in Indiana, but the number is growing). We have put 345 miles on the car already and have gotten 53.9 MPG. We are happy with that so far

Looking forward to the next several years driving this great car. Thanks for all the help in Prius Chat.

Attached is a picture...the interior is grey (only comes with grey). Can somebody tell me how to add a picture on my Blue Hoosier page? I have tried to save it to Avatar but it doesn't work. I also don't know how to only add a thumbnail picture instead of a full size.

It looks wonderful! My Mag Grey comes in next week, and I can't wait!

What other modifications have you done besides the Prius decals and splash guards?

Have fun on your trip!

I think I have a new favorite color. Congrats!
Funny thing, when I first looked at the top pic I thought they put a big sporty spoiler on the back of the '08 but then realized it was a trash can in the background.

HA! I thought the same thing and wondered, "How do I get THAT!"

Where's the trash can?
All I see is a wiper blade.

Congrats! I love that color.

Where did you get that decal? Makes it look sporty.

<whistle> Now that's sharp! It definitely rivals Magnetic Grey as the best colour in my books (don't tell Totoro! haha).

You already added the decals? nice. The tint is good too. Is that 30%?

Looks Sharp!!! Congrats!!

Rae Vynn · 09-27-2007, 10:38 PM

Wooo Hooooo!
The white decals look great on that!

Next, you'll need a sharkfin.... :P

**efusco** · 09-27-2007, 10:38 PM

That's just one fine color, and Prius decal on the sides already to boot. Very very nice.

Very sharp.
