    Sorry for my errors:
    Corrections for when you vote, I learned there is no editing of Poll options.

    "Light Green = <strike>Electric Green Mica </strike> Silver Pine Mica (6U0) 2006-07. Ironicly, my color.
    "<strike>Blue</strike> Grey with slight green tint = Tidland Pearl" I've been told Tidland Pearl is not "blue".

    If it is any conselation, I looked at Tidland Pearl on the web and I thought it was a very beautiful color, one I would buy if still available.

    Original post
    OK, before I get flamed, I did seach, but no guarentee I searched correctly, so if this has been done, I am sure someone will point to it.

    It was too complicated to include all the international colors, but if you have one, tell me the details and I can add it to the list.

    I am predicting Super White the winner, as it has been available all seven years.

    Priussoris, I like your description of color as Mid Life Crisis.
    When someone asked me why I bought my Prius, kidding around I said because I was in Mid Life Crisis. He said that Prius was not a Mid Life Cirsis car, that a Lexus or Acura would be. I was kind of offended.

    I wanted the Harley Road King but been there done that already on a Goldwing Aspencade, and 84 FXRS harley.
    Wife liked the Red Prius too so we don't normally agree on anything such as transportation wise. This was a first.

    Getting back to your response of a lexus who ever told you to get one I hope they know it's a Toyota basically.
    Now a real Mid Life Crisis car to me would be a RR SilverCloud

    Magnetic grey. Wanted option 5, but the only one in grey was a package 6. We took it.

    Black is what the cool chicks drive! B)

    FWIW, the Tideland Pearl is nowhere near blue...it's a silvery-gray-green color depending on the lighting.

    Seaside Pearl was the only color I wanted it in (and boy was it hard to find out here) I have to admit though after seeing it I really like the Barcelona Red Metalic too! (maybe his and hers someday) :)

    But why oh why did they give us Seaside in the States over the awesome Spectra Blue Mica thats offered in Japan! :angry:

    I voted for Salsa Red, although I have a Barcelona Red myself. I like those darker red color (Salsa Red for Prius, Impulse Red for my old Corolla)

    Cross-posting w/ What's most annoying about the Prius:

    IMO, Prius colors are boring as hell.

    I sure wish there were more exciting choices (a la New Beetles). But oh well.
    I settled for a Mag Grey simply because it was the only one that had everything
    I wanted (#3 + Leather & no Nav).

    Today I saw a Camry Hybrid with a beautiful banana green color that I'd much
    rather have for my Prius. Sigh...

    Magnetic Grey here. Admins: Why isn't there a "color" field on the member info on the left?

    OK, I was really gonna flame ya, but seeing as you recognize your error in naming the colors, ESPECIALLY MINE!!!, i'll overlook it for now.... B)

    From what I've seen, the VW's colors are about the same, except their piss yellow color.... :lol: :lol:

    Maybe they'll get a Plaid Prius.... :rolleyes:

    What if we have two Prii? I wanted Driftwood Pearl, but after waiting a while for my dealer to get one in I heard about a pricing deal that Toyota was running. Checked their website and they had only 5 listed. When I got there that night they had 3 left. I ended up with Classic Silver Metallic. But our other one is Brilliant Blue Pearl. I think the silver shows every little paint chip and piece of dirt. Wish I could paint it.

    But of course! . . . What better color for an egg shaped car?

    Gold, the color of choice for my wife, got ZERO votes . . . but that's the color of our Lexus SUV hybrid.
