    This is the color I must have for my next Prius.
    My first car was this color and it is my favorite.
    Therefore, there is obviously no alternative.
    Toyota is going to have to make me a Plug-In Prius BETA tester.

    I don't like the current blue.

    I like light blue...wish my car was lighter...or red...The dark gray is nice only when very clean...like black. I think I will cover my car with decals....Dakkar Prius!

    I dumped my metalic light blue BMW X3 for a silver G3 Prius. Why did I pick silver? I don't like any of the color offered in 2010 Prius. Silver is my least dislike color among them all. I'd pick the metalic light blue again if it was available.

    You don't see people lining up to paint 'em yellow lime now, do you?

    The most positive thing I can think about this repaint (each time I drive by) is whoa ... to each his/her own.

    I've been surprised how nice the white looks. I know it is a 'special' paint, but does it have a coating that somehow sheds road grime? They always look so clean (maybe their owners are just fastidious).

    I like the softer blue too. :) The fact that it plugs in is just a bonus.

    Yes, I am. :D

    In fact, had it dry-docked over the weekend so I could switch from "salt season" to "bug season". Wash, clay, Zaino's paint cleaner/swirl mark remover & then six coats of Z-2. I never liked white, but this Blizzard Pearl practically glows in the dark now.
