    not a big yellow fan, but that dont look half bad.

    If i decided to keep mine past my 6 year contract, i will probably h ave it repainted in something, maybe a silver. Growing tired of black

    The choice of color maybe questionable, but the factory-like quality of paint job is not bad....smooth and glossy.

    That appearance was simply due to not taking an extreamly close photo. I didn't see any reason to rail on that too ... but ... now that you mention it ... literally every surface of the body looked like it had been ball-peaned. Then (for those who know quality paint) there was the 'orange-peal'. I felt very sorry for the car.

    I'm certain that it was horribly collision damaged, prior to the repaint. Perhaps greylar noticed as well. It was pretty amazing.

    Well, you'd get a unique hand in "Prius Poker" for that color!

    I always thought that maybe they didn't come in yellow so they wouldn't look like cheese wedges. :D

    Didn't Ford Pintos come in that color?

    Hey, I don't have anything against yellow, if I may clear that up. To give a high five on a Prius Yellow / Aftermarket paint job (IMO) these babys, I'd trade for ANY time ;)
