    Hey Everyone!

    Just bought my first Prius (2013 Prius III Black/Bisque). I had never driven one till this week. Got it tinted Friday and just put two coats of wax on it.
    Special thanks to PriusChat for helping me navigate this decision and understand more about this unique car. Also thanks to Clearwater Toyota. One of the best dealer experiences I've ever had (and I've had a lot of good experiences). They're legit.

    Look forward to learning even more on PriusChat!

    Great looking car. Welcome to the club. I just bought a black one about a month ago, Prius lll also. I hate work but I love getting into every morning and the drive. Great choice.

    I like the Black , a little more masculine. Funny you say that I also enjoyed driving the car every day. It is just fun. I do get compliments

    Your car looks great! Now I am inspired to get a good wax job on my car. The black cherry pearl on my Persona is somewhat like the black as it really shows the dust quickly.
