New DD (flame-suit on!)
You know that saying "My other car is a __________" where your other car is cooler than whatever you're driving at the time? Well, now, no matter what, I can't win. **** it, here she is!
Made less terrible via H&R Springs, 17x8 RPF-1, and headlight housings that were matched to the body
Also has red painted tails for a bit more normal look. Tape was for detailing
I never ever in my wildest dreams thought i would own a Prius, but its actually a really nice car. Smooth ride, roomy, efficient, reliable, bluetooth audio and touch screen stuff, just a really chill daily driver. So now I can say "my other car is a miata" (FML), and "my other car is a prius (FMLx3).

I purchased a Fiesta ST last February and could not be more pleased. I am averaging about 32mpg.
It's not as good a Prius on gas but it's also a bunch more fun. Seriously, take one for a test drive if you have the time.

My housemate had one of those. Nice power and fun to drive but the suspension was way to stiff to be a daily for me. The factory suspension was more Jarring than my miata with 750/400 xidas.
Prius makes sense if you have long commutes. My parents had one and put over 200k miles on it with the original battery.

Few shots of it actually cleaned up. Friend is a detailer and we did an 8 step process on it, turned out awesome.
I think the red tails really make it less cheesy looking. They're stock tails painted transparent red/smoked by a body shop
kind of hard to back in straight because the body flares out at the back so when one side looks straight it's really crooked as above.

It was a long day...the steps might be out of order on my list.
Did my first full tank fill-up yesterday. Trip computer showed 49.1mpg, actually did 47, still really decent. Took 9.4 gallons as soon as the fill light started blinking, so still 2.5 gallons left in there. Can go ~150 miles after fuel is "out" hahahahaha
