    I have yet to see Moonglow in person, but judging from photos, it seems beautiful. I love the sparkle of green.

    Guess we both got the same exact package and same buzzing noise, :tea: woohoo ha!!

    I haven't had an opportunity to see the red in person and was wondering if it has any hint of metallic in the paint or if it's solid red?

    Thx

    The c looks really great in red, although I haven't seen on live yet. Didn't know whether it was solid or metallic, either.

    Great pictures! In a super sunny location, keep it under shade as much as possible and use a good polish with UV inhibitors to keep it from fading out!

    I've seen plenty of red cars and trucks running around, even here in the frozen north, that end up on the light red to pink side of the spectrum. Our Gen III liftback is the first red car for us. Red Prii seem to be on a roll!

    I have since had my windows tinted. I will take some new photos of it soon with the darker windows. Makes the car look even better!

    It's solid, not metallic :) Regarding the fading, I keep my car in an indoor garage when not in use, but I only have a 3 year lease so I think the color should be ok for that small amount of time.

    Im sorry to hear you are having issues with your bluetooth. I havent experienced the same problem. I should probaly check where my C was assembled and see if there are any differences with yours.

    Hey Starbrite310 I just took delivery of a Absolutly Red Prius C this week. I must say you have awesome taste in Color selection. I got the level one. I will need to add some rear speakers and tint the windows. I am also thinking of some light weight 15" wheels. Thanks for posting see you around. Mark

    I had my windows tinted two days after I took these photos. I just still haven't gotten around to snapping some new pictures of it.

    My last Prius had windows tinted so dark, one less darker than limo. I decided to go a tad bit lighter this time around and it looks fabulous.
