    Current households:

    Wife: 34, winter gray
    My brother (visiting temporarily): 23, Black
    Me: 33, Blizzard pearl.

    Guess, which one we got?

    Pearl of course, I'm the boss... :D:D:D

    The caveat here is: Our (wife and me) first choice was winter gray but there was no way we could get it in the time I wanted.

    Second choice was black (wife liked it too) but it was damaged during transport and dealer was hoping to have it fixed and delivered to us 1 month later without me noticing it. What a loser!

    Then, I saw a model 4 Blizzard pearl in my dealer and love it! Model 4 was not an option for us but an unsold model 3 was arriving in the dealer in few days... BINGO! My wife and brother are happy with the color too... :cool::cool::cool:

    Disappointed for no green option. There are some tones of green that are really neat.. and Prius is a green car, so what's up with NO GREEN COLOR for 2010 Toyota?????

    I would have gone for the closest to dirt color - Beach Beige - but wife doesn't like 'gold'.

    52F, my 2005 was Salsa, my 2010 is silver.
    When I bought the 2010 there was a Silver IV/SR and a Barcelona IV/SR on lot, I don't like to have the same color each time.

    Yes, great poll!
    ON fence! Am 75% at blizzard white/misty or the winter gray/misty.
    I think I'd be OK with a blizzard/bisque too. I like that combo also.

    It would be an IV with sunroof! :)

    So out of curiosity, has anyone compiled this information yet? Or are there still not enough responses?

    29, Female. Wanted Black but ended up with Blue Ribbon and I love it.
    It'd be interesting to compile colour choices by sex as well!
