Answer

My mom gave me her 2004 prius after I sold my 2006 honda element to help her get out of debt when I was 18 .  Ive been using it for 7 years now and even though it looks like an old lady car it gets incredible gas mileage (50 mpg in the city, 25-30mpg on the highway).  When I go to Denver,  CO from Albuquerque, NM I only have to fill up once in that whole 450 miles or so.

It goes surprisingly fast, I have a lead foot and I've gotten a couple speeding tickets because it goes so fast and its so smooth you cant really tell its going fast. The back seat folds down for extra space.

Downsides-if something breaks, it's usually a lot more expensive to fix.  Once I lost the key and had to pay $450 to get a new one and get it programmed and synced with the car.   The awkward shape can sometimes slow the car down in harsh wind or you'll feel the car be blown from side to side if the wind is really strong (open areas of the highways mostly)

Overall, yes I would recommend the prius as a first car for anyone. Easy to drive, great in gas, and of course there's that helpful rearview camera! I bet the newer models are even safer and more efficient than my 2004 model.
