    Here are the charts of colors for the US-Spec Prius. If you see an error please post it here and I will correct the page and graphic ASAP. You can upload a photo of your car by clicking on the graphic, then clicking on the appropriate camera icon next to your color.

    If you need me to update the chart please post your model year (or production date), color code and a description or photo of your car. For now this is for US-Spec cars only, I will add other countries in the future.

    I have updated the chart for 2007. No new colors, everything is the same as 2006.

    But I think that for Barcelona Red the interior color has been changed from "Bisque" to "Oak." I saw one of these card on Saturday, and the "Oak" interior certainly looks very, very gray to me.

    Can you confirm the interior color changes for us?

    Thanks,
    Jim

    I just purchased a 2006 classic silver metallic and had it parked next to my girlfriend's father's 2005 classic silver metallic, when I noticed that his car definately has more of a gold flake to the paint. Granted mine was clean, being brand new, and his wasn't but there was a definate differance in color. I have been meaning to post something about this but forgot until reading this post. I thought it was kinda wierd.

    Hey guys, I just updated some 1st-gen paint errors. The chart shows true for 2001-2003 now.

    Also, the URL for the page has recently changed to:

    Im sorry but i think silver on the car makes the car SOO MUCH CHEAPER SINCE EVERY SINGLE CAR NOW USES IT! i mean silver used to be a cool color in the 90s but now its just ugly no matter how many speckles are on the car. The color silver is nothing special, its just like waxed alluminum. I would wait like 3 months for my prius rather than getting it in silver IN FACT I THINK EVEN THE GOLD LOOKS better than the silver. Also silver takes out the point of having a chrome grille since that just blends in.

    BTW I HAVE '07 BARCELONA RED and i think the color did change from 2006-2007, this one along with a 2006 both under a sun, the 07 seems to have more golden speckles than the other

    BTW AWSOME COLOR but i wish i could get it in black, grey, or green (just a little bit)
