Most popular Prius color?

livelychick · 04-06-2006, 11:18 PM

I was just curious...what do ya'll think is the most popular Prius color out there? Silver? Blue? Black? It seems like I seen tons of silver, and I know it's the most popular car color itself.

Just guessing, but I would say the silver or the super white. I was torn between those two, but eventually went with the super white. In hindsight, tho, I wish had the beige interior instead of the gray interior. The gray dashboard is pretty dark, almost black, and I'm concerned it will fade quickly in our hot Louisiana summers.

Since Prii are in such high demand people often settle for second or third choice on color, I'd say the most popular color is the color they manufacture the most of. Probably silver.

In the SF Bay Area, I can say for sure that it is Silver. That's ALL I see, and I keep trying to get in the wrong car.

Silver is either what they make the most of or it's the least popular color. I have two Priuses, and my father has one. All three were walk-in buys of the only Prius on the lot. All three are silver.

So, either they make so many silver ones that they are the ones most likely to be on the lot, or silver is actually the least popular color so that all the other colors get snatched up leaving only the silver ones left on the lot. Probably a little of both.
