    Nice! I am always envious whenever I see a blue Prius, as they're pretty rare where I live.

    Yes ... very nice, uncommon color. About as uncommon as pine mica, or the sandy beach metallic or the 'eggplant purple' ... or whatever the heck they call it.

    Cool! My 2013 is blue.

    Never had a red car, so got the red.

    Enjoy the ride!

    my 2016 new blue Prius and my thoughts

    May 2016

    • So im thinking after 2 months i i have a three with the tech package
    • need more time to decide if this was a good purchase my new blue
    • So what I'm thinking is the ride is awesome its so smooth. and on rolling county roads its like it just glides over the road no bouncing just gliding but i don't like having to stop after a long guild. its harsh and rough the brakes still need tuning maybe is just me. there are i lot of likes and a few er dislikes like the and sound system so far After 2500 plus miles car is saying 64.8 mpg and actual on fluelly i see 61.6 sound system is awesome nice bass and sounds clean but nav is not very nice default doesn't tell u { why would i wanna get on the pa turnpike for 20 miles on a local adventure damn I'm in a prius not a winnabego } of toll roads ill report more thoughts later

    they ARE a much less common color. & every once in a "blue" moon you see a even rarer blue - the gen II metallic blue;

    Took the plunge with my 4th Prius and got the metallic crush blue - previously I had the sea foam blue green - silver - and blizzard pearl - all ‘safe colors’ - I am worried I will have to wash it every day if like black it will show every speck of dust . BUT on all four I got the clear protective film for the bumpers - fill hood - headlights and mirrors = worth every penny er dollar. No rock dings or scratches after thousands of miles of highway/freeway driving.
