you do know that per mdl yr, ferrari's entire line up put out less emissions than the total amount of Prius sold in that yr, so if you truly want to be 'green' buy a ferrari 
(4000 ferrari sold per yr vs 1000000 prius)

Thank's all, but for the sake of discussion.
But if you were to compare one Prius with one Ferrari, the Ferrari would consume at least three times as much fuel and pump out triple the emissions.
Based on their 1,000,000 sales, Toyota has calculated that comparing straight gasoline vehicles in the same class and similar size and driving performance, their cars have prevented 4.5 million tons of CO2 from being released in the atmosphere. That’s the equivalent to about 535,500,000 gallons of fuel or, at todays prices, $2.01 Billion saved. That’s a lot of… well, everything!

Funny, I have an RX400h(dark grey), ISF(obsidian), and prius(red) as well... with a Ford F-250(dark grey & diesel) as icing on the cake.
The 400h is the wifes, the prius is for our "business", and the ISF and F250 are mine..
You're right about the prius being a fun little car.. people just don't get it until they drive it.
