    I want to buy the touch up paint for my 2015 prius. Can someone tell me where can I get the color code?

    You should also have the color code on a label on your car. Check for a label under the hood typically.

    Also, many paint manufacturers have a book that lists paint color codes for the major manufacturers by model year.

    Focussing just on that bit, if you show up at a dealership parts department, tell them the model, year and colour, they'll take it from there.
