I do hate it, but I wasn't hating... I was wondering why an enthusiast site would be using a prius on an interactive page. But since we're going there...
1- Good looking: Subjective. We're all entitled to our own opinion, but I think it looks like a boiled wart. 9 reasons.
2- You can do a burnout: And they show one in gravel. Yes, it can chirp on asphalt too, but that's about it. In any case, what does it matter? 8 reasons.
3- Good to drive: They qualified this one as good under 50 MPH. On the highway it's noisy and slow. Fair point, though, since it's really designed for max mpg in the city. 8 reasons.
4- Good enough for celebs: And I care because? 7 reasons.
5- Sounds great: Again, subjective. 6 reasons.
6- Good mileage: Well, duh. That's the point. 6 reasons.
7- Display that shows how it's being powered: Which they also point out that you WILL try to watch while driving, and that it is dangerous. A distraction-o-meter is not a plus point. 5 reasons.
8- It's faster than running: So is almost anything, but I can't really disagree. 4.5 reasons.
9- Easy to park: This was actually a joke. 3.5 reasons.
10- Eventually will save you money: at 5 year, it'll save maybe 200$. At 10 years maybe 8000$. Less higher buy-in. At the end of 10 years you'll have saved about 5000$. 2.5 reasons.
So not 10, 2.5 reasons. Of which one is obvious, one is an interesting tidbit that might potentially sway your decision, and 0.5 is stupid.
Good day.

You see, now I’m curious as to what you make of other CarThrottle’s videos.

No captions button on this on. Can't listen at work. If you can tell me the reasons I'd be glad to though :)

Wait, they put it in the video this time...
1- Sounds good: Subjective, though I personally agree. 6 reasons.
2- It's universally loved: No, it isn't. Among car people, yes, but many otther people will see you as a large douche. 5 reasons.
3- It's driftastic: Can't disagree with that. 5 reasons.
4- It's a real man's car: They seem to acknowledge this as a joke. 4 reasons.
5- Looks great fo its age: Once again, subjective. 3 reasons.
6- Will provide aural stimulation: Similar to #1, but not quite. Even if you didn't really like the sound, I'm not sure you could wholly disagree. 2.5 reasons.
7- It does 0-60 in 4.8 seconds: 'nuf said. 2.5 reasons.

Fixed it. Ignore the irony that I had CT open that fateful night.
