My Prism looks just like the one shown on the web site. It is an excellent auto. Love the mileage. Comfortable, quite, peppy, crisp handling, low maintenance. What more could you ask for?

I bought this used for my wife - was upside down in her trade-in but dealer worked a very good deal - same as a Corolla but cheaper. Was a program car. Not very comfortable for long trips, but good for trips around town. Performance is as expected with an engine this size. Have had one alignment with no further problems - has been trouble-free since purchase!!

My only complaint is that is a bit cramped for a 6 footer. Other than that, it is well built and economical.

Purchased this car in 2001 as a back up car & it's still going strong. No major issues & very reliable for the price

Ok, bought this car from my father. I have replaced the O2 sensors. The cadalitic converter is going out, and the a/c no longer works. The back passenger window does not work. I do not like the interior-very uncomfortable.
