Question type: Shopping & Pricing
Bought a 2014 Prius C Three, 51,000
miles, single owner who leased for
three years. Consumer Reports said
they could not recommend it. Am I
screwed or will the car serve me well,
for $13,000?

I do not know why CR panned this car but it still is a Toyota.
My husband has a 2013 Prius C Two ... he's had no problems with it, though he did have to replace the "little" battery (the kind used in gas cars) a couple of years ago. That's been it. He loves that car and has about 90k miles on it, so you should be good to go. CR pans stuff for odd reasons sometimes - it panned my Z28 because the back seat was uncomfortable. Duh ... if you're buying a Z-28 for luxury sedan comfort, then you're buying it for the wrong reasons. After that, I look at what they're dissing and going from there.
