I think we need our own "Really Cool Peeps Who Drive Seaside Pearl Prii Club" or something like that anyway.

We got ours by accident. Went in to order White in package 7 before the HOV stickers and the tax credit ran out. Seaside Pearl was on the lot, and had been "...just turned down by the customer who ordered it." So, an offer we couldn't refuse. Now we prefer it - shows dust only slightly more than the white.

Last week we passed a parked Seaside Pearl, less than a half-block (or half-of-a block, as the lady says on Nav) before we stopped at a signal. 2 more Seaside Pearls went across in front of us, in the same lane. I thought we just noticed our color more readily than others, but that doesn't explain 4 within a half-block. Toyota must have heard the word right after our favorite color hit the U.S. market. (Just U.S?)

Naw, black is by far the best color Prius!!

To be honest, Seaside Pearl was a close 2nd to the black...actually I told my dealer originally that I would take a Pkg 8 in either color. Then one day I saw a black Prius with tinted windows and it looked SHARP!! The Seasides still looked cute but nothing could beat the look of that black Prius I saw, so I decided then that black and only black would work for me. And it still does!! And the Magnetic Gray sure is pretty too...I like "cool" colors in general: black, blue, gray, silver.

Speaking of Race....... Did I mention that the Red cars are faster while using less fuel? :P

HA! Hee! Did I mention that blue cars not only are faster while using less fuel, but also get less tickets too?!!

Oh, yeah? Black cars don't even need to use gas....and they come with automatically engaging invisibility cloaks. <_<

I really like the green color, and I thought it would be clever to have a green colored green car. But I see very few of them around town. I think Toyota produces more in white, silver, and blue. Those are the colors I see the most. I bought the blue (seaside perl...) My SO bought a red one, and I think that's a beautiful color. Not sure which one goes fastest or gets better mileage, too soon to tell. How's that for diplomatic?

I pulled up next to another blue one at a stop light the other day. We signaled the "thumbs up" to each other. It was pretty cute.

Cool article!

"Green cars can often be chosen by people with hysterical tendencies. "
Glad I dodged that one.

[eclectcmoi]

Yep dachshund you sure did! Now you're one of the "more introspective, reflective and cautious drivers" who drive blue.
