Blue 06, Package B, Morristown, NJ

[linus2007]

Test drove and ordered a 2006 today that was expected for delivery by Sept 30th. As I didn't really need the bigger tires or rear spoiler and since this one would be eligible for the full Tax Rebate I figured I'd grab it. The package includes everything else that's in the 07 (stability control, side airbags, etc.) Made sure the dealer agreed to a refundable deposit if the car doesn't arrive by the 30th, otherwise it will cost me $1500 more and I could have ordered a 2007 in the color of my choice instead. So we'll see...
Wish they'd make these things in more exciting colors though: white, silver, grey, black, tan, blue and red are so much like all the other cars out there. Half the cars in the road (and especially in parking lots) are shades of gray or tan.

Hey if you want an exciting color you should have gotten a Purple Neon! LOL Seriously, hope you get yours in time!

The magnetic gray is beyond gorgeous. It's a chameleon color which changes with the ambient light - it can be anything from gray to black & all the delicious charcoal shades in between.

Hope yours comes before the end of the month because nothing, I repeat nothing, trumps a humungous tax credit. (And special kudos to you for requesting a refundable deposit!)

Congratulations! It's always good to see another Prius being added to the NJ roads.

Once you have it, start checking out our local club forum for meetings. http://priuschat.com/NJ-New-Jersey-f70.html

Enjoy!

Just spoke to the dealer. The car is in and I'll pick it up tomorrow.

Had my car a week. Doing about 50 mpg. I filled up the tank today for less than $19.00. Amazing.
