    Hi Ztanos there is a choice (and I use the term loosely) of 8 colours for the Prius here in the UK - 2 whites, 2 greys,2 reds, dark blue and black! Other than the White Pearl the rest are all pretty dull and insipid. There are no vibrant colours like the Habanero and no yellow!!

    Hey Guys, if it was shipped direct from Japan to the UK, at least the steering wheel will be on the correct side! ;) lol

    The yellow seems a very popular colour in the US, why don't you guys get together and push Toyota? I'd guess being in the biggest Prius organisation with dedicated fans, you would have a lot of leverage.......

    The yellow looks awesome. I don't think we have that colour in Australia either.

    They are also correct for us down here. :)

    That's right. Our colour range is that same as what the US gets, except our colours all have different names.

    The problem is that Yellow in the USA is not a popular color. Toyota since 1978 had tried several different models of cars in yellow with very poor sale numbers. Orange was also available in the 70's and seemed to sell better than yellow on the Corolla and Celica. I fear that Habanero (Orange) will be eliminated as well in the next redesign of the C, of all the Prius C's I have seen on the road, only a few are Orange.

    I really like the aqua air, 2 door convertible.:rolleyes: when the kids are grown, I would buy one. I think toyota needs to work on how they name their cars.

    using prius on most models makes people think there goes another moving roadblock. these sporty looking cars need sporty sounding names. Aqua air ="water air"??? Prius C c mon. give me 100K a year and I could do better.:LOL:
