    Honestly, I don't know if pictures help me or hurt me. In the 2009's I knew I wanted Magnetic Grey. But I can't tell on the 2010's. From what few pictures I've seen the Grey seems significantly different. Just a lot flatter, which isn't necessarily bad. But I think I've just got to see some of these colors in reality. Photo's just confuse the issue. Every good photo of any color has me changing my mind right now.

    I was definitely in that boat as well ... Winter Gray was one of the 3 colors I was deciding on for quite a while (Blizzard Pearl, Black the other two) and when I saw a Pkg V in Winter Gray is person it looked REALLY sharp and especially with the Misty Gray interior ... the blue on the Toyota badges looked decent with it as well. I just couldn't quite pull the trigger on it though. It's a very deep gray without any sparkle.

    Did you see the pics in the Winter Gray thread? I took some when I was at the dealership.

    Husker, I don't think you've thought through your color choices nearly long enough. Maybe you should give it another month or so. ;) You sure you really want to be out in the middle of the cornfields in a Nebraska blizzard, in your "blizzard" pearl car?! :D Give Big Red a chance! (FYI, I grew up in Omaha).

    Danny, when you say that Winter Grey is "flatter" than Magnetic Grey, what do you mean by that? Is there less metallic sparkle? I think it looks very sharp in the picture, dark and glossy, almost like a blue-black.

    It is a very sharp color, but I guess when I say flat I mean that it lacks that dimension that the metallic flecks gave the Magnetic Grey.

    Danny, have you seen the Blizzard in person? Beth refers to it as a satin white vs. just Super White. There's no way I was going to get plain white either, but the Blizzard Pearl is more than just a white. $220 more in fact ;)

    I does look flatter to me. I have it and it doesn't sparkle like the magnetic gray...less metallic flakes.

    Nice! Are you going to keep the wheel covers off and get some center caps?

    OK ... maybe I'll change my mind another hundred times :)

    Still a Husker fan or have you switched over to the dark side?

    $220 more and simply BEAUTIFUL.

    Someone at work today was on the fence in terms of a Honda vs. Toyota. I think they fell in love with my new Prius, and the beautiful Blizzard Pearl!

    Thanks Fred and NYPrius1. :D
    I'm loving the car, all except the steering, but I'll adjust. I found out why I the battery wasn't charging. I had it set to a different screen and today I drove quite a lot and put it so I could see all the little arrows. I guess I'm driving on electric quite a bit when I'm not on hills, it shows the arrows going from the battery only.
    I got it up to 40 something mph before the red arrows came on. :cool:
    I guess that's why it drains down to about half then charges coasting down hills.
    Great Fun! I hope you both get yours soon. :rockon:

    If you want any specific pics just let me know.
