Cosmic Blue Metallic:

Blue Streak Metallic:

Oceanus Pearl:

Here are the Solara Blues ( :lol: ) I guess it all dpends on what YOU like...if you wat metallic, then you have two choices...then you choose between light and dark...if you want a pearl color, only one choice...

Personally, based on pics, if I were choosing between the blue streak or oceanus, I'd choose the oceanus, but I'm not into blue cars. The cosmic is too light for me, almost baby bluish. IMO

On a side note, this is my favorite new color, Magnetic Grey Metallic:

I'd like to see them all side by side in person... hard to tell in a photo.


On the contrary to some, I LIKE blue cars... (not ALL of them... mind you...)


The Blue Streak looks interesting... a little bit more "electric" than other colors from Toyota.

i'd have to agree. I like the new magnetic grey metallic, the car will always looks clean.

Color is all personal preference.

This is what I like about the colors in the silver / grey family...they don't show dirt easily. Cleaning in not required as often :D

The Blue Streak is giving me flashbacks to 1985. :o Magnetic Gray looks sweet.

All this talk of blue Solaras and no mention of the Indigo Ink Pearl (my personal favorite)

Actually, that Blue Streak Metallic looks a lot like the Blazing Blue on the Yaris
