    I am coming from a 2001 FORD CROWN VICTORIA... a true gas guzzler, but ultra-reliable, but this color sea glass pearl is awesome and so far I am blown away.

    Does anyone recommend a good iphone 6+ mount that connects somewhere nice or the vent on the prius?

    I need to get the prius chat iphone mirroring thing! has anyone tried installing it?

    Hi Galactic and welcome to Prius world! :)

    You'll need to post some pics soon so we can all see your new ride.

    I have the iPhone 6s with this cupholder mount and have been loving it:

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JTWRN8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    It also fits the 6+ and 6s+. There is a variant with a longer 'neck' if you want to use its screen for NAV (Waze, etc.).
    But I find it handy to keep it there plugged in so I can use Downcast when I need to.

    I bought a magnetic mount from Amazon that clips to the vent - works very well.

    Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! didnt expect to end up here, as I was looking at BMW's, but glad to be here with my new prius!

    Do people recommending wrapping the hood and front in protective films? I do want to preserve my paint as much as possibles.

    cant wait to take it for a drive later today! Also, will post pictures!

    Yes, I recommend protecting the front of the car! If you want to keep it looking nice for years.

    Personally I had the car wrapped with Xpel shortly after purchase. I just wash and wax as normal.

    galaticenergy,

    Congrats and welcome!
    We liked the sea glass also, but chose the red.
    You should more than double the mpg with the LA stop & go freeways.

    Enjoy the ride!

    Welcome and congratulations on your new Prius. I also just bought a Prius 2 in Sea Glass Pearl at the end of last February. Love it!

    Great color. I had a third generation prius with that color and I thought it was super unique. Enjoy it!
