I’m not a cultured person in high finance or luxury items but I am obsessed with the new 23 prius. I have a decent 50 mi commute to work every day and I think its a clean car and worthy of its $30K price point. Thoughts on this as my first big purchase?

Personal preference but I’d personally seek a more exciting car than a Prius.
Then again, you are “obsessed” with it and it’s only 30k so I don’t think it would be a bad idea.
Those new Prius are actually nice and look pretty sick. I’d say it’s worthwhile given your commute and you clearly like the car
I think you should consider Acura too as a bit of a cooler car.
Lots of cars cooler than acura, only the NSX is a good pick. Imo the alternatives to Acura's cars are better, but that's just my personal preference.
TLX Type S is the best value/most underrated option on the market right now.
It’s fine for a purchase. But pls do not get a Prius.
There are literally so much better options
What are some options I should consider
Anything… also, why the 50 mile commute? That seems very unreasonable for investment banking
50mi seems like a long way. Why don't you move closer? It is 100mi roundtrip or 50mi roundtrip?
50 mi roundtrip. its not too bad (roughly 40 minute drive).
Id rather ride the bus than drive a prius
Fair enough lol
Is prius birth control?
Lmaoooo given that im single it probably is
Out of all cars why the prius, possibly the uncoolest car of all time
Check the design though… i think its improved a lot
This of course would depend on what kind of cars you'd like, but the new prius is a pretty economical car and not super insane MSRP-wise, so as far as new cars go it's probably one of the safer choices you can make. Hybrids save quite a bit of gas, and if you like the car, it seems like a good move. Still take a look around for options, like if you're a big car guy maybe the prius won't be the most exciting thing to drive, but since everyone has a different set of priorities it might be the right car for you.
The new Prius looks a lot nicer than previous generations for sure, I quite like the look of it.
Prius is def a prestigious car. It is competitive and is climbing the league tables competing with the big guys (think Honda Accord, Nissan Versa, and Ford Focus)
LMAOOO this guy found me
