Waited 8 months for deliver - bought it with all the options. Never fell in love with a car before & I've always owned good running cars (Acura Legend, Toyota Avalon XLS, etc.). Only item I don't know yet is how long the batteries will last - they're warranteed for 80,000 - hope they last longer. I keep my cars well over 200,000 miles. I own it almost 18 months now & have over 33000 miles on it. Averaging 48 mpg city & highway combined.

This is the first "new" car we've ever purchased, and it was well worth the (six-week) wait. Driving this Prius makes you feel young again, hip, and enviromental -- all at the same time! Surely, Toyota needn't continue to take "a loss" on the cost of the technology in this baby. I would've paid a lot more and waited longer, had I known what a gem this would be!

Have had my Prius for a month and a half. Great ride after the learning curve. This has got to be the wave of the future. Right around 47-48 miles per gallon so far (new car and winter driving).
Got Lucky

I was a Legacy owner for 14 years and swore to buy another Legacy. When we were car-shopping after my car died suddenly the Toyota dealer had a Prius in the showroom, a model with all the bells and whistles (someone reneged on the deal, I got lucky). I had wanted a 'green' car, but didn't think I would buy one this time. The Prius is an absolute dream. I live in a hilly state and don't do much city driving, but I'm still getting 44mpg. After loving a manual all these years, I instantly got used to the Prius' controls: park, reverse, drive. It runs like a dream, makes a little more noise going uphill, but it's still quieter than my old standard. If you can buy a Prius, DO IT

I have two one for me and my wife. This is the best car I have ever owned. I've had the cars for ten months and average from 41 to 45 mpg in the winter and 46 to 51 in the warmer weather. It's comfortable, has good pickup and I really enjoy driving this car. I love the GPS system and although that was not a priority for me I am glad I have it and will never buy a car without it. What is surprising about this car is the amount of interior room. at 175 inches in length 3 inches shorter than a Nissan Sentra with much more interior space. In fact the exterior dimension, this car falls into the small car class and the interior has about the same amount of space as a mid-size car.
