    That would be Blue Moon Pearl, and was only available in 2002. It's the color of Mrs. Spinnr's car.

    I wonder if that light blue color is in fact their Winter Gray Metallic. I would be sad, since I really liked the Magnetic Gray color. I would have definitely got my Prius in that Magnetic color instead of my Silver if they had offered it then.

    Winter Gray is a medium gray - the light blue above is something else.

    Hmm now I'm not too sure that the white I labelled is Blizzard Pearl lol. It looks a lot more solid, closer to Alpine White (or what you guys call Super White)

    Me too!! Why on earth did Toyota drop that color for the 2010 model Prius. I bet the car would look gorgeous in that shade. I think the G2 model was the only Toyota product that sported Silver Pine Mica as a color selection. Now it seems to have gone.

    The Blizzard Pearl shade of white looks so darn harsh in strong sunlight. But it probably keeps the interior cooler.

    That's the slot for rechargeable toll credit in Japan. In US, we just stick the ugly plastic pack on the windshield or dash with double side tape.

    Yes but it's not light grey. Still medium to light I'd say.

    Is the light blue/purple only available in certain countries? Any chance it will be in the U.S. ?

    We had an ice blue/light purple kind of colour before. It was Blue Moon Pearl on the 2001-2003 Prius.

    In the US, it was only on the 2002 model. In 2003, they replaced it with black. In 2001, there were only 4 colors offered - white, aqua, forest green, and one other I can't seem to think of.
