If the only reason you buy a car is to get you from Here to There, then I guess a Prius makes sense. But for me, a car is something more. It is a public statement of how I feel about myself, the pride I take in my accomplishments, and the presence I want to project to others on the road.
Which is why I'd take a Ferrari over a BMW over a Camaro over a Nissan over a Mini over a Prius.

And you think a car demonstrates this to others? ....Fascinating. A car can be useful, or a car can be fun. But it tells us nothing about the person inside it.... and I mean nothing.
