    I am partial to orange myself, but the orange really isnt that vibrant. So after two months of not being totally impressed I have switched back to the green on my '06. I just hope in a future software upgrade that they add a few more colors, perhaps a blue or purple or grey or something... anything.

    Purple would be groovy! :)

    Why not give us a color chart where we can mix our own!

    My favorite color is orange (as you can probably tell by my avatar), and so in my 2006 it is set to orange.

    Curses to Paradox who has just planted an idea in my head.
    *Ponders orange LEDs to replace the dash buttons' with.* Hmmm....

    As previously noted the 06 only comes in orange and a teal/green color -
    I like the orange better.

    :) I really have enjoyed the BLUE. As i recall on my '04, GREEN was the default.

    The 2007 I have on order will not offer the BLUE... *SIGH*

    Still got one in the basement, good ol' PC Portable from '84.

    Not that it works any more, that's why it's in the basement.

    Am I to understand that the new Prii have less color options then the older ones and the MFD are harder to hack, so I can't even put a custom slideshow on the screen. :angry: Well I am gonna start learning 'puter stuff so I can start making my own MFD software. Okay, I just figured it out. Everybody says that driving the Prius to get the best milage is like a videogame. That means that you must achieve a very high mpg for a certain length of time, then more color options will unlock themselves. :D I can't believe that I didn't think of that sooner.

    Likewise I have a 2006 without navigation and only have green or orange for color options... which I keep mine on orange... i like the color... and having nice rounded buttons as opposed to the screens on the 04 and 05 versions which look like the difference between windows 3.1 and windows xp or vista

    Only green and orange in my 2007. So, I too picked ORANGE for Halloween! I'll change to green next month.

    My Prius is blue (well, Seaside Pearl) and the MFD is blue.

    I like blue.
