Has anyone seen the colors to compare the Barcelona Red to the old Salsa Red. We have a 2006 on order and just wonder if anyone can point us to a place to see it? Presumably it will have to be on the Toyota Japan web pages, but since I don't read Japanese, I am hoping for some help.

I really like the rims shown on the pictures 195/55 r16. Does anyone know if they are available in the US?

Unfortunately the color representation of both Barcelona Red 3R3 and blue 8M6 are not very accurate. Barcelona red is not at all as red as it looks here.

My dealer showed me a color sample - just ask your dealer for one.

This is the only site I"ve seen that has both colors at once to compare.. I don't know how accurate they are:

Is it just my screen/pc or is the Barcelona Red color of the RAV 4 in the photo on: http://pressroom.toyota.com/Images/V...T2005110277670 different to the Barcelona Red color displayed on the Prius Japan site: http://toyota.jp/prius/exterior/bodycolor/index.html? which is quite similar to the color on the Toyota chart at: http://fleet.toyota.com/html/documents/MY_...Color_Chart.pdf
