Silver Pine Mica color choice

Silver Pine Mica was not my first choice in August of 2006, but that was the color of the first available package 6 model. I like the color for a number of reasons, not the least of which is that dirt doesn't show up as soon as other colors.

 

I think SPM looks really nice. It was my wife's second choice to Spectra Blue.

 

I love the color. It looks way better in real life than in the pictures. It looks green during the day and siver at night

 

I think you are very lucky,, that was my 1st color choice, I really liked it when I saw it in the showroom, then I went to another dealer where I bought my Prius and fell in love with the Seaside Pearl. I ended up with the Driftwood Pearl and I am very happy. I think you will be happy with the Silver Pine Mica, especially if it has the Bisque interior,, the showroom model looked so classy

 

Bought our silver Pine Mica last August and love it. Doesn't show dirt. We're in FL and didn't want dark color. We have dark interior and it's a great contrast. Had many nice comments about the color

 

My first choices were the silver pine mica (which I got) and the seaside pearl blue.
A great color. Hides the dirt and doesn't get too hot in the summer. Green color for a green car.

 

Just got my SPM #5 a couple weeks ago. I wasn't on my list of colors but it has grown on me and I really like it now especially with tinted windows. I don't think you can go wrong with that color.

That was my first color choice, Silver Pine, but the dealer had 2 cars in the newspaper ad back in March, i drove in, Barcelona Red i think or Super White....the Red was $200 more than the ad price(Wth?) so i took the white. They had a SPM Touring #6 but it was too much out of my budget.

 

I Love mine!! You don't see the dirt!! Besides it's the ONLY TRUE GREEN PRIUS!

 

I've had silver cars for the last 18 years....so I thought it is time for a change. Absolutely love the Silver Pine Mica...fits perfect with a Hybrid vehicle.

 

My wife traveled 100 miles to look at the silver pine mica. We had never seen one before. She wanted this color because she was tired of having a car the same color as all the others in town. She drove a Sub outback (green) and there are hundreds of the same here in our town. She ordered it in that color in 4/07 and got it in 2 weeks. Now the silver pine micas are EVERYWHERE!

Our license plate are sequntial, so you can see what order they have come in. Hers was the first,,, She's pissed!

Nice color though, shows little dirt, stay cool,

I've noticed the silver pine mica no longer shows up as an option for my zip code. I guess they're retiring it after the '08s? It's one of my three color choices with my dealers that I'm on the waiting list for. Looks like I probably won't be getting it!

 

I have the SPM which has a interesting grey tint that is more like a nice light green mist..It was hands down my wife and I first color choice. That is not meant to put down any of the other colors. Over the years I have owned an interesting burnt orange in a 1977 Celica, a cherry bomb red in my 1982 Celica, a black in my civic ex, maroon in my 1997 camry and ink blue in my 2004 highlander lmt. I am just trying to stay alive long enough to go through all the Toyota colors.
The SPM as everyone has commented on stays clean looking even after a few rains. I am biased but it seems like a perfect color for this green machine, excuse my pun. In answer to your question, I like the color choice even better after owning it over a month and I especially like the color's ability to not highlight every imperfection (dirt) like my dark colored cars

 

As soon as I saw one, it was my favorite color. However, I have a seaside pearl because my youngest daughter insisted on a blue car. (Yeah, I know, way to let your kid control your life.) I love my color, but I long for yours. Lucky you!

 

I hate green and green cars. That being said, Silver Pine Mica looks really nice on the Prius, I'm certain you will like it. Good choice for a "Green" car.

 

I had originally rejected SPM because I did NOT want a silver Prius. However, when I met Fiona "in person" it was love at first sight. I've had many compliments on the color - which I think of more like a frosty pine. And she does not show the dirt as others have said.
