    I just got my silver one but was curious what magnetic grey looked like. I have not seen any at the dealerships I visited. Does anybody have one? Please post a picture if you do.

    I took delivery on magnetic grey #5 last Saturday. No pics yet but I'll get some up this weekend. It looks fantastic.

    Purchased my Magnetic Grey package 3 on 15 June in San Diego. See avatar. This color is new for 2006 an suposedly started shipping in May.
    MG is a distinguished color and the Grey/Black interior looks sharp indeed. But the car does soak up alot of heat from the sun here in So Cal. Fortunately the AC in the Prius works well enough to compensate (at the expense of milage)

    I looked at the Dashmat site and plan to order a Prius 2006 mat in light grey which should at least protect the dash and help keep the car cooler

    I own a Magnetic Grey Prius 2006 with package #8 (NAV & Leather), Great color but it will show dirt on the back end after rain. But I don't mind washing it so that's my only complaint.

    I think all Prii show dirt on the back after rain.

    It's definitely the beauty of the bunch. I have tideland pearl, similar, but not as pretty.

    The black prius was my first love, if that's any consolation.

    I don't think the MG looks any dirtier than the silver in bad weather. I haven't given it a good washing but I think I have a couple chips down to the primer. If so, they really show as the primer is white.

    Which happens to be right here (to save you the 20 minutes of searching I just took to find it).
