    :mad:I just drove by a blue metallic ribbon prius that was stopped at a light in Oregon.Did get to see the license plate was a dealer plate with the E on it. They must be out there. Could not tell if it was an 2010 but it was definitely the blue ribbon which is a new color, dealer plate.. Man, I couldnt stop and go talk to him. I make a lousy pirate!

    If you are not sure it was a 2010, then it very well was a Spectra Blue Mica

    Don't forget that the 2009 comes in a blue. It isn't the blue ribbon metallic, but the darker blue on the 2009 models isn't too dissimilar.

    I think the 2010 is a distinctively different look, but then I've had the opportunity to see several of them up close. I'm pretty certain I could tell the difference at a glance, but I also have to remember the 2010 is still distinctively "Prius" looking.

    P.S. you have the wrong package in your profile. You have the Canadian-spec package (hence the "CA" suffix) You want the "Solar Roof" package further up the list. :)

    Dam! Thought the only blue out there on previous ones was a dull slate blue. Duh, Julie. Sorry. Really have to get a life other than prius.(NOT)
