    Hi Spike,

    Yes that's the way it is. There's only one gray choice. They call it dark gray or charcoal gray, but it's really a medium or light charcoal gray.

    HI Boo and others
    Have a 2008 pruis with bisque interior. When I ordered it I thought it would be a beige color, but to my surprise its more like a gray/beige. I bought floor mats for it in beige, and when I took them out to my car I realized they did not match. I went back in and got the gray, and they almost match exact.Weird what they call there colors..

    Lol, you're the second PriusChatter I've heard recently say that they think that "Bisque" (What's that??? Is that an English word???) has some gray in it and that gray mats matched better than beige or tan colored mats. I don't see it, but others like you do. Reminds me of "off-white" paints, which are commonly separated into two groups: "beige-ish" off-white and "gray-ish" off-white.
