If you could own any color Prius...

I'd take the black if it had a metalflake. I love both the red and blue, but took a silver because I had to have the gray interior...

I would like a blue with a gray interior, but gray interior isn't offered for blue.

I absolutely second that. My ideal combination would have been the Seaside Perl with the gray interior, however since that is not offered I went with the white exterior, since the interior color was more important to me than the exterior.

I want electrostatic paint that changes color according to my mood.

The longer I sit in a traffic jam, the redder it gets.

Otherwise, various shades of blue...

I would want black with lightning on it.
You know how drag racers like black with flames shooting back from the front, well I want that with lightning instead of flames, with obvious implications.

"MoodPaint"! (think: MoodRings...remember those?) What a great idea!

I generally prefer a dark, charcoal interior (not sure about the "burgundy" part of that on the Prius) but it's not an overriding necessity for me.

I have a tan "Oak" interior on the truck which is nice. Prior to that, most of my vehicles have had a dark, charcoal interior.

No love for the super white? :cry: OK, I guess it is a boring color. I like blue, but like the others, prefer a indigo blue color. Picked white because it was on the lot with the package 6 I wanted. Also light color cars are more practical for Bakersfield, where the summer temps are often in the low 100s .

DanMan32, our Seaside Pearl AM has 24K on it, and my SO has said the red is really nice!  Maybe a roadtrip to Florida...we have friends and family somewhere on the east coast of Florida...do a little bartering...a little sun and surf...

Thanks Finman, but I'd rather stick with package 9 (now sold as package 6). I've gotten fond of the NAV.

I voted for Salsa Red (please don't tell my Tideland Pearl).
[/b]

Exactly my sentiments.

The Salsa Red is the first red I've ever seen on a car that I liked. Sort of a merlot color -- and like all the Prius "Pearl" colors, alters in different levels of sunlight.

Isn't the Seaside kind of, well, girly? I don't know if I've ever seen one in person, but I always get the impression it's "robin egg blue". The brochures and online samples do NOT give you a good idea of the colors, and of course seeing one in a dealership is mission impossible.

Edmonds.com puts in a "color adjustment" when you do used car pricing. The most neutral colors (rental car colors, I call them - Silver, Tan, medium blue) gave higher prices. Black was neutral, white took some dollars off. It sounds statistically accurate, but not necessarily individually so.

Wish I had seen a Tideland in person, sounds like a very cool color, not so flattering in the brochure.
