Wanted Blue Ribbon Metallic & got it luckily through searching Dealer Inventory starting 6 weeks before my former lease was up...

Second choice would've been Barcelona Red - though was not locally available at my time of purchase nor was my third choice of Jasper Green.

Arrow Re: What color do you have and what color did you want

Since 'swvgings' brought this old post back, I thought it would be interesting to ask how people's preferences have changed after having their TCHs awhile, and seeing other colors on the road. In just three weeks, my TCH will be a year old.

I had wanted red and got gray (almost tied for red as my top preference last year). But now I'm glad that I didn't get red. The gray is still a great color, but it seems too drab sometimes and it seems like everyone in the world has a gray car.

It seems to me that overall Toyota could have given better (more sophisticated) color choices.

If I were to buy a TCH again, however, I'd order silver.

To my knowledge, the Jasper Green is TCH specific, and not available on any other Toyota.


There is another green available on the other Camrys...It is called Aloe Green, and is not available on the TCH.

Got Magnetic Gray and that's exactly what I wanted. Had to wait about two weeks for it to come in, and, unfortunately, I was overseas for work (Bangkok) when it did come in. But it was waiting when I got back and even though I was jet lagged, I was still excited to go pick it up.

I had a Galactic Grey 4Runner before the Camry and while I liked that color, I like the Magnetic Grey a little better.

The green that you have seen on the SE/LE/XLE is Aloe Green and not available on the TCH. The Jasper Pearl is much lighter (more like a green apple) and available exclusively on the TCH. If people spot you, they know you are driving a hybrid

I actually wanted the Jasper Pearl Green but my dealer told me they weren't "Marketing" that color in the Pacific Northwest Region. So I went with Blue Ribbon MEtallic, and that's what I got!! I love it so far. The only drawback is it shows every little drop of dirt!

There was only one Camry Hybrid on the lot, and it was the fabulous Jaspar Pearl. People often stop me on the street and tell me what a beautiful color my car is. I beam with pride! It also looks fantastic in the garage next to my other car, an Iris (lavender) 1996 Chrysler Sebring convertible.
