    Here is my Red one. I'll admit that I never actually laid eyes on this one before I bought her home. I saw other red ones in the lot, and I wanted the black solar panels. I must say that I <3 it. Another very tempting choice would be the white with the black solar panels on top. The only reason I did not get white is because I park this outside all the time. Once I get that bigger house with more garages, I'll start buying white cars I'm sure!

    What a beautiful car..I do love that red color. I wash mine almost every weekend.

    At work, there are 7 within one block (I have the only red one). One is dark blue, the other one a blue C, older sea glass, white gen III, another gen III silver one, and a black gen III one, and mine.

    Never thought I'd have another red car. I'm a white or black car kinda girl. My '09 Prius is black. But this beauty really stuck out for me.

    The original poster asked if you had red, what would your second choice be ? Heck, if you have a Barcelona red Prius, there is no second choice. You got it all.

    Looks just like mine!! When I originally got a red Mazda Miata, I didn't think that I would ever get another red car (too flashy on the freeway), but with a Prius, cops will think twice about me going "too" fast. =) I don't think my co-workers believe me when I say that "Blue" is actually my favorite color...

    I agree. I think if I were a cop, a Prius would be the last car I'd pull over!

    Red. I think all of the Prius colors are pretty boring. A metallic blue or metallic orange would be great. Why make a conservative (liberal) vehicle in so many ho-hum colors?

    I wouldn't say the light green (sea mist) or the baby blue are "ho-hum"... we as consumers just do not tend to go that way. I'd say that Habenero Orange is far from "ho-hum"... but I'm waiting for an electric blue or a "candy-apple green" to come across! I wouldn't say I would buy one, but sure pretty to look at!
