 This is my first car, as a teenager. I don't find that the car in general is horrible. I feel, my specific car is terrible. I had to purchase a battery pack to get this thing to go on a regular basis. If I hadn't it wouldn't start. As a teenager, it took me many hours to be able to buy this hunk of junk for 2500. I have had this car for about 3 weeks and it died on me today. I can't express the frustration I am feeling right now. I was scammed by a dealership into buying a car that wouldn't even last me a month-- ridiculous. The dealership even lowered the odometer, so I'm not even sure exactly how many miles is on it. The car is missing a cd player, and the battery is in the trunk in a very poor spot-- making it hard to jump the car. Overall, I am extremely peeved about my 2001 Toyota Prius.
