Default No fair.

I want a color that isn't listed.

I want a deep indigo....a deep blue that almost turns to violet but not quite.

You mean I have to limit myself to current colors? What if someday the Prius is made in my dream color?

And no mention of interiors.

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

If tideland came with the grey/burgundy interior that would have been my first choice. I really like how, at least for me, it is hard to tell if it is green or grey. It is always changing depending on the light. I like to think of it more like gunmetal.

I would have rather had the blue. They had a blue the following week, though I think it was lower package.

Anyone want to trade a 2004 Salsa Red with 23K on it for a Seaside Pearl?
Better not, that would create havock on extended warranty and financing.

I voted for the Salsa in the poll, but we're getting a Silver (hopefully next week). I picked the color for our last car (Malibu), so wife gets to select this time <g>

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...

Silver was my 1st choice, but the Seaside (her first choice, go figure) came in with the right package for us. Now a Silver AM tops the list for my SO. She's not at all hard to figure (sarcasm).

Default Re: If you could own any color Prius...

In compliance with the rules of this poll, since I don't already have a Prius, I picked the color I want, which is Tideland Pearl.

I saw a Tideland and a Seaside side by side at a dealership this week, ready for delivery to their respective new owners. The Seaside (blue) is nice, but much a brigher blue than I had imagined...reminicent of my first car, a 1972 Opel Rallye which had matte black hood and striping. The Tideland (green) is far more subtle than I thought, and like it even more, confirming that as my color preference.

I've only seen one other Prius ever...on a street in Hartford, in Driftwood, which was certainly a nice color as well, and would be my second choice at this point.

I hate white cars (I call them "nurse wagon white"). Interesting that the poll reflects at least a lack of interest in white as well.
