Does anyone think the 04 Prius is a good first car?
Seriously... If you get one, you'll be totally disappointed in all of your friend's vehicles. Be kind to them. Try to keep comments about the superior hardware you have to yourself. Those at that age are very observant, they'll figure it out on their own. (They are more open to accept change too.)
Also, get used to being volunteered to drive often.
You'll be very pleased with a Prius. And whether you like it or not, you'll learn a bunch about efficiency, car care (to maintain that efficiency), the automotive industry, and politics. The car we all adore definitely raises awareness.
