    Hello All!

    I'm planning to buy a prius sight unseen. I know the car is a 2006 Magnetic Gray.

    When I look around the Bay Area for a comparative color, I only see a lighter gray color. The pictures I am seeing of Magnetic gray are much deeper in color.

    So...Is there some different between Grays? Perhaps different shade for a different year? (e.g. <2005)

    Thanks for the help!

    I don't know much about the pre-2006 colors, but you can check them out here: http://john1701a.com/prius/prius-colors.htm

    Magnetic gray is the dark gray, not the light (silver). It's pretty sweet looking, almost as nice looking as Barcelona Red Metallic!
