    Hi Toyotareference,

    I have a 2006 Prius print brochure that I can send you.

    Can you say a little something about what this project is about?

    Thanks.

    You can check the KB. I've posted the colour codes for the 2004+ Prius over there.


    You're not the same person posting the colour codes at TN, are you?

    It started as some notes so that I could remember Scion colors and it grew from there. At some point I decided that it was getting too involved to be hidden away, so I made it public. Now I maintain topics on 30+ forums and am focusing on researching classic Toyota information so that I can one day "finish" the page. :)

    To nail down older color information I have started referencing brochures... so it only seemed natural to start scanning them and making them available for everyone to view.

    I don't maintain any information at TN.

    Cool. Maybe you should get in touch with that guy lol. I know someone's doing something similar as you are over at TN, collecting all the colour codes all the way back to the 2000GT!

    Haha, you are definitely describing me... I just realized that I am "that guy", but I have had repeated problems with the mods over at TN and I prefer not to use that site. I try to use the more focused enthusiast sites like this one instead of the more bloated forums-for-everything sites. :) I find that I get a better response from the vehicle owners anyway.

    I'm focusing on a US brochure archive right now, but if you scan them and email the JPGs over to me I will stick them in the archive for everyone to use forever. :) darren_at_toyotareference_dot_com

    According to freke70 (about a month ago) all colors for the 2009 Prius will carry over from 2008. Give a shout if this isn't so. The chart has been updated.
