    FYI, I received an e-mail from a guy at Longo who said I could expect an 8 week wait for a package 3 in Pine Mica if I ordered from him. (This was just on Monday) I don't know if that helps since it's a different color.

    Congratulations it's a great new color - not quite black, distinguished with metallics! B)

    I received a 4-6 week quote from Longo on my Seaside Pearl #3 which I ordered on May 12. Can't wait!

    I picked up my 2004 Silver #9 from Toyota Seattle at MSRP a couple weeks after the model was released. But this time around in 2006, Seattle said they weren't sure when Magnetic Grays were going to roll in -- that they hadn't even seen one yet. Funny thing - a MG #8 then drove by a minute later with the driver giving an enthusiastic "Thanks!". After a handful of calls to nearby dealers, my girlfriend found out Toyota of Yakima just sold a MG #8 one day prior, so I signed up their next one and...

    Just picked up a Magnetic Gray #8 this past weekend! Snagged it from Kevin over at Yakima. Really impressive results - he spotted it before it came off the boat, then sent me the VIN# while it was on the road to the dealer. After faxing in my info, it was prepped before I arrived. All-in-all - it was a 2 hour trip for a 1 hour exchange and off I went with no hassles, nothing above MSRP, exactly as described. (with only a 3-4 week wait).

    Here's some shots of it in Yakima, then up in the Chinook Pass on the way back home:

    LOVE the color, which is why I switched from Silver to Magnetic Gray. Should be here within 4 weeks.

    Then you'll be the 2nd person from UCLA in a magnetic gray! B)
    Got mine 3 weeks ago (Bruin alum in Chicago)

    Our Prius has arrived!
    It took exactly one month from Longo Toyota, we picked it up on Tuesday evening May 30, 2006.
    The color is even better than I thought it would be!!!
