    I am the happy owner of a 2005 Prius, Super White with package #6 BC. :rolleyes:

    I picked up my car from Tansky Toyota in Dublin, Ohio (Columbus) on October 31st. I added a clear bra about 2 weeks later after I noticed a small paint chip on the hood. I touched up the paint chip before the bra was installed.

    On the current tank, I am getting only 45 MPG. Oh well!

    Congratulations ! Don't you love a car, that is not yet broken in, and is being driven in cold weather by a relatively untrained owner, where 45 mpg is "just 45 mpg" :lol:

    By the way -- do you think your Super White looks bigger than the darker Prii? It sure seems that way to me.

    Yes, it does appear to be a little bigger. When I first got on the list back in late August, I stated my color choices as: Seaside Pearl, Super White, and any color but black. It really was a toss-up between the blue and white. I only waited 65 days for my car.

    My car has about 1000 miles on it so far. A friend of mine got his Silver Prius back in July. Since he is better "trained" than I, he is getting better mileage.

    Congratulations! I've had mine since Oct 23 - have 1750 miles and averaging 43 MPG. Have a lot of short trips and currently living with the snowflake -- but still loving the car. :D
