    I have pre ordered a Winter Grey Metallic 2010 Prius, but notice that here in Canada we have a choice of leather interior colour called "Aqua" ( which is what I have ordered ) ??
    I have not seen anyone mention this on the forums and am wondering if anyone else is familiar with this colour and/or what it looks like? Im assuming a very light blue tint?
    Tideland Prius?

    Beginning to sound like Canadians are only getting this optional colour choice with the Winter Grey Metallic?

    Aqua interior means they leave the moon roof open on a rainy day.

    so I have taken the liberty to upload a scanned copy of the options list I have from the dealer and if you look at the table on the top right side...( zoom into it ) you will see Winter Grey Metallic with "Aqua" interior leather......

    View here: ( just replace ** with tt )

    first of all, thanks for the scan. I wonder will the aqua color look like that?

    or that?

    since they both consider themselves as aqua leather....

    so...the technology looks like the fully load one. but according the picture that technology was a package D, then how come all the package D have cloth material? maybe typo? also, look like we are lucky to have backup camera in a relatively low price package.

    Seems this used to be called, "seafoam" ... at least that's what the tile color was called. Popular bathroom color for 1920's era Bungalow ... and on that era kitchen counters

    I can't imagine that color with a grey car. But hey, whatever floats your boat!

    I agree with you....they would never combine that colour with grey....So im thinking aqua will be a much lighter colour !

    The other interesting items to note are:

    1. Only 1 grey interior colour - I wonder if its the light misty grey or the dark grey?

    2. The option of a beige interior with black exterior.

    Looks like the colour options will be different for each market. So I wonder when the options for Europe / UK will be announced?

    adsam,

    Based on US spec, "Aqua" is what we have called Misty Gray...check out the forums or the press photos from reveal for images. Misty Gray has a light gray interior with a dark accent color on the door panels and center console.

    Hope that helps, you have not ordered an aquamarine interior, don't worry.

    Just to clarify... 'aqua' is actually light grey and 'grey' is dark grey.

    Are there any photos of the dark grey Canadian leather interior online? I've been searching but I'm not sure if I'm viewing Canadian or American models.

    They should be identical, other than having an AUTO position on the headlight stalk and km/h as the main unit in the speedometer and °C in the climate control.

    If you must see it, then check out the posts in the link below

    Yeah I guess it is the Misty Grey Interior.

    On the other hand, you just revealed the package for the Canadian-Spec Prius. I'm not too sure if I like the way it's packaged lol. The US folks might actually like the way ours is packaged
