Alpina boner
Prius not a ‘good’ car? Seriously? Start asking cab drivers how many miles they have in their prius’ and what their maintenance costs have been.
Car buffs are missing the point with a prius. They will last 350 thousand miles with regular maintenance which, in their case, is fluids, tires and brakes.
While you are spending nothing driving your prius around you can fund a toy car on the money you are saving. And before someone says, “what about the battery?” Ten years of prius history shows they don’t go thru them.
So, actually, they are good cars.
Volkswagen tdi. Better mileage. Better car. Similar price.
Wrong on all counts
Well, they may cost the same
I hear you but the Prius drives like an old minivan. Life is too short…
Anything is more fun to drive – seriously. Drive a Fiesta (or anything you can find) – throw it around
a little and you will understand. I’m not flaming you. The Prius is a good car
just not a good drivers car. It’s an appliance.
Cheers!
I thought I was the only one who got turned on by Alpinas LOL!! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a tii Alpina before, that thing is sweeeet!
