    The color is much better than it looks on the website. Package 3.. Averaged 46 mpg at 70 or so mph from Dallas back to Austin.

    But it's a good tired, right? :D

    The magnetic gray is a beautiful color. It was my second choice after black. Congrats on the new car & welcome to the club! :)

    Congratulations!! I've seen a few Magnetic Gray Priuses around town and I must admit that it's the 2nd best color (behind black of course!) for a Prius. :D

    It's a lovely color - I've seen a couple in my neighborhood. I bought my white one in April, and mag grey wasn't available until May.

    Enjoy the car - I love driving mine!

    Congrats...I brought "Maggie" home in July. I had wanted black, but I was able to get the Magnetic Gray as a second choice and I like it better...It doesn't show dirt as bad as the black does. I have had many complements on the color. You will love it!!!

    Excellent choice, I hope you enjoy it. If any had been available on any reasonable allocation schedule around here, I would have gotten it, but it's one of the most desired colors around this neighborhood, evidently. I'm happy with the "Driftwood Pearl" (gold to anyone with a lick of sense ... gawds I hate these foo foo color names) I ended up with however.
