    I just bought a 2011 Prius 5 with 24k miles as a 3rd car. The sound system is amazing and this thing is not as slow as I expected. I'm actually impressed with PWR mode.

    I read the thread about everything a new Prius owner should know. What other threads are good?

    Welcome to the site, and to the Prius!!

    When I first drove a Prius in 2012 (coming from 8 years of SUV ownership), I was thoroughly impressed with the performance and technology... oh and the mpg's too! :D

    That was 2012; I bought a used 2007 level 5. Sold it this past February and bought a 2012 Prius. They are GREAT cars that are undervalued by most people (shhh! dont tell too many people how great they are, then they will be in demand and prices will go up) haha.

    Either way, congrats!!

    Out of morbid curiosity, how slow did you expect it to be?

    We had a 2009 Honda Civic hybrid and it was so slow. I always thought priuses were slower.

    Got a Prius. I am not exactly sure how to cope with this type of car yet. I guess I will be impressed through time!
