Buy it for the MPG, you'll enjoy everything else about it.
Detailed review:
OH WHAT A FEELING! Talk about timing, I purchased my new Prius the middle of August, option 6 w/ Leather, Tideland Pearl. The dealer had to order it for me, it took 10 days. I received it on August 22 (Gas $2.49), today, (Gas $3.49). I just hit 1000 miles and my MPG has steadily improved....currently getting 55 MPG in the City. The thing about a Prius is that you do learn how to drive again as you play the game........how many more miles per gallon can I get? I no longer stomp on the gas at lights and don't mind the snail crawl pace of traffic jams (its all electric at low speeds). With leather, it looks like a luxury car and has lots of room inside. Love it!
