  2. Hey [​IMG]

    How many miles?
    One nice thing about a used car is at least you don't have the "preserve the newness" to worry about.
    It's already used, maybe got a few dings, ready to go again.

    I am with Skylis on the thing about buying a used car. I prefer a used so I don't have to preserve the newness. Also the car should be a lot less money by buying used, rather than new. I bought my 2015 Prius c just last month and love it. Previous car was a Yaris hatchback 5 speed.

    Glad to see you also joined Fuelly. What do you think of your c so far? What was your previous automobile?

    Welcome aboard!
    There is a "Prius chat newbies" section but this is a good place for a newbie with a C.
    Hope you enjoy the unique attributes of the C as many of us do.

    whoa, how'd you figure that out?

    previous car was/is (until i get rid of it) a mk4 vw gti, and so far i think the C has everything I need, nothing more, nothing less. time will tell how much I warm up to it :p not that I don't like it (i purchased it after all), just, as expected, the car hasn't blown me away

    I bought a 2012 yesterday for what I believe is a good price. It has 42,000 miles on it and it looks like an older couple must've owned it I only have a very few light on noticeable scratches on it and it shines like crazy it's so weird to drive against my generation three Prius but that has been told in a wreck.
