    My co worker has a Sand Beach Metallic 11. He lives on a ranch off a dirt road. The color hides yellow dust and mud well. LOL

    Besides seeing one at the dealer while shopping, I saw one today while out and about. I like the color, but don't know of if I would have bought one.

    I bought a black cherry persona a few months back and I ran into another one 50 files from my house with the same exact plate as mine except the last digit was off by 4.. I snapped a pic, what are the odds of that happening.

    Just saw my 5th BCP Persona... I get a lot of positive comments about mine.

    BCP (3P2) has been a Toyota color for a number of years. At least as far back as 2004, when it was offered on the Scion xB and xA. It was also popular on the Scion tC from 2005-2007 when it was replaced with Sizzling Crimson Mica (3R0).

    Personally, I've always liked the color.

    I would never buy a silver car - such a boring color

    The Black Cherry Pearl really stands out. I have no trouble finding my car in a large parking lot full of many prii! I like the color more than ever since I bought in March...

    As of 8/17 I have seen 5 BCP Personas in the LA area. They must not have made many of these. Anyone else seen any lately?

    5 BCP Personas is quite a lot actually. They can't make too many anyway because you need to have the budget for close to a Four (as the Persona sits somewhere between a Three and a Four), not want anything on the higher trims that the Persona doesn't have, AND not want any color other than BCP, Blizzard Pearl or Black. I've seen the Persona in all three colors.
