    I also took possession of a black Prius, and not by choice. Personally I think it’s the best color, you’ll love it ... its shiny ;)

    Ditto here. Mine came rolling off the semi at the dealer while I was looking at a couple of other ones on the lot (back in November, 07). The black looks great.

    Congrats on the Black Prius. I also don't mind black, but it may very well be my last choice. I know my aunt is expecting delivery of her Silver Prius in 2 weeks. She specifically told me that any color will do except black.

    It all depends on each individual preference.

    the only two colors i considered were black and mag grey... ended up waiting an extra three days (week total wait from "order" to delivery) for the black, but i would've waited and extra 3 months for it! even in 100 degree Texas, I love it.
