    Lovely Hi-Def video of a walk around the exterior and interior of a Barcelona Red / Bisque 2010:

    Fantastic! And that neighborhood is sooo quiet (except for the birds).

    A bit long - could have been edited down, but shows the high gloss of the paint. Nice!

    Even though I'm not in the market for a 2010, I really like the new
    body style.

    I am very partial to Barcelona red, I traveled some 400+ to get my
    car in that color.

    I'm not convinced that the typical OEM paint job is all that hot. Mine
    sure isn't. My paint has something vaguely hinting at orange peel and
    the edge lines on reflections aren't really crisp and clear. Other Prii
    I've looked at closely are similar.

    I don't know who posted that video. My suspicion is that if was meant
    to show off the paint, the car and paint has seen considerable work;
    clay bar and the like to get the surfaces truly smooth.

    I wouldn't get all in a lather about any pre-release pictures of the paint
    that may not be real life -- think Playboy centerfold . What counts is
    what comes off the showroom floor, not the ad copy.

    Love my Amapola, paint though is only OK.
