So, I've come to the conclusion that I'll most likely by a Prius_ sometime in 2006. The CivicHybrid, though appealing, loses on paper to the Prius_ and is also hindered by the fact that I can't take one for an overnight test-drive (none available in area, though I'll keep trying). Also, all the things I've read about the HCH in recent articles and magazines, though they praised the vehicle, it still seemed to pale in comparison to the Prius_. Finally, the design of the Prius_, though not a favorite, is unique by far, the sort of VW Beetle uniqueness that has appealed to me since a child. The HCH, on the other hand, though a sleek new design, does not appeal to me like I had hoped it would when I first heard about the HCH redesign.
So, now comes the hard part: what color? I'm not a fan of all those tideland, seaside, etc, pearls. I'll most likely end up with a black, silver or grey. However, the magnetic grey, a new color for 06, won't be out until May. Other new colors include a different red, a pine mica silver (greenish), and a silver with a different name. Silver kind of seems to be the standard hybrid color, though from recollection I think I've seen more blues, tans and whites on the road than silvers. Whatever the case, I don't know if i want to wait until may to get a new car. What color did you choose?
