Toyota Prius - 2007 Reviews

Mine is fully loaded, since I wanted GPS and leather, and those options mean a full package. I haven't regretted the decision once however. The options are very reasonably priced as is this car.

I highly recommend shopping online via the Toyota web site, and get dealership quotes emailed to you, as I got lower quotes this way - much lower than going to the dealership and trying to haggle down. I tried this too, but ended up going with the email quote as it was over $2000 less. Additionally, it makes for a no-stress shopping experience...

The day I pulled this car off of the lot, I fell in love with it!! You would think that a midsized sadan with a 110HP engine would move like a snail. But in real life this car has some real UMPH!! You can pull up on the freeway and go 70mph just like every body else can in the same amount of time they can. This car has plenty of room for 4 adults but 5 would be a little cramped. Even with 4 adults you have plenty of room for all of their luggage in the back. My Prius has the navigation system wich is totally awsome!! This is actually my second Prius. My 05 Prius was worth a ton of money because...

I'm on my second Prius, and frankly am disappointed compared to the first.  They've taken it upmarket.  It's no longer the small, nimble little car that turns on a dime.

 On the upside, it has keyless entry, a backup camera, and lots of controls conveniently duplicated on the steering wheel.

Not sure how I feel about the hatchback.  It's hard to open and close inside the garage, but roomy and convenient. 

I know the main appeal about the Toyota Prius is the extremely good gas mileage (although I am more aggressive and only average 45MPG), but what I really like about it is the utility of the interior. The hatchback is truly versatile, and with the fold-down back seats you get an enormous area to pack your gear. With the rear seat backs in the up position, it will actually seat two adults or three kids (and I put the driver's seat all the way back.) It truly has more room than many larger cars.

The controls and dash take some getting used to, and while there are things that I would change, for the...

I have always driven compact cars because I couldn't afford anything else, but now I drive a Prius by choice.  This car has everything I have ever wanted in a previous vehicle and didn't have. 

The hatchback and fold down seats have plenty of storage and hauling space, while the hatchback cover keeps things out of sight.  The rear window wiper is the best!  Having snow accumulate on a hatchback window while driving is unnerving, but now I can keep it clean and see what's going on behind me.  The rear camera for reverse is absolutely wonderful, especially in parking lots!

The keyless entry...

this is a wonderful car and i would buy another one if i could, however since this is a review, i will tell you the negaives i have found:

it is very slow from a stop, and would not be a car you could move out of the way of something very quickly... if you need to move fast, you'll get crushed becuase it just wont react

it is very spendy to start with, and since it hasnt been around and hybids all together havent ben around much, it is also speny for an service (most times you have to go to the dealers because no one elese knows about them)

you wont get good gas mileage until it warms up, so if you...

How many ways can you say "I love my car" ?  I feel so safe in it.  As the commercial says, it's quite zippy.  It was more than we originally planned to spend on a new car but it makes up in monthly payment what we save in gas money.  It's also roomier than it looks.  We fit three adults, a baby in a car seat, and 3 weeks of luggage (six suitcases and six carry-ons) into this car.  I especially love the console that allows me to monitor my MPG's and improve my driving to conserve gas.  The bluetooth handsfree works great and will help me be in compliance with upcoming CA laws on cell phone...

We recently purchased our 2007 Toyota Prius from Wesly Chapel Toyota and could not be more pleased, it is an outstanding car for the money.

Our first long distance trip was from Zephyrhills, FL to Bioloxi, MS and when we arrived we were amazed to find that we still had a 1/4 of a tank left. We would highly recommened this car to anyone looking to save both money and gas. The Prius comes equiped with a back up camera and while driving it is so quiet hard to believe you are surrounded by other cars.
