    I want to thank all your posts in the previous weeks, that help me make my Prius purchase. I should p/u my Prius tomorrow with cash for clunker trade. I ordered pearl w/bisque model lll base with bumper protection. I went around many times on color if the silver pine was still available that would be my pick. It was between the blue or white my wife liked the white and I went with it, a clear coat is a nice idea. The Nav. is pricey I think I will get a garmin with voice recognition 855. The 17" wheels are nice with nice rims but a high cost on replacement. At first the dark interior was practical but the bisque is nice. Bank of America gave me a 4.1 interest rate with preferred dealer. Walnut creek gave me a good price I finished deal tomorrow or Sat. I did rent a Prius 2010 V mpg was 57.5 on computer that sold me. All the talk about the ford fusion was interesting but mpg and hatch back goes to prius. Though I did not test drive ford. This is what I took in from all your posts. It would be nice not to denied myself anything and just go for package V. Looking forward to a nice quiet ride with less pit stops. I will report the price after I pick up the car. Thanks for all your help.

    Is the Pearl white with bisque more on the female side of color or is it the same for both?

    DeanFL - LOL !!

    Mitchellsprius - First, :welcome: and second, I think we've established that white is neutral - neither male nor female and we all think this Blizzard Pearl is a beautiful non-color. :) (Okay that should be enough to start the debate back up!!)

    Congratulations!! - You're gonna love your new car!

    Just stay away from pink and frilly lace and you'll be fine.
