Could be true if the Prius had "gears" and not a CVT.

Does cruising by a car in the carpool lane count as a "kill?" If that counts, I've killed an E55 AMG and an SRT-4.

OMG!! You lie!! No one can beat the SRT-4.... no one!

crotch rocket(i think it was a kawasaki.. but my recolection on what kind of *** sport bike it was is not so good ) vs prius
prius kept up with the bike through the first gear (did this one over in freemont CA heading twords the dumbarton bridge)
WTF!!! Ok, if you really goose the Prius and you are alongside a Honda Civic, maybe... But somehow, I doubt that a Prius will have a chance against ANY motorcycle. I'm gonna have some fun and post this on BARF as well. Light the blue touch paper and retreat

this guy must be smoking something. prius owners should be happy if they can do 1/4 mile in 23 seconds.

I had a 2000 Mirage DE Coupe that would run an 18 and that car was super slow. I cant see how thse guys say they are beating everyone, unless the other driver doesnt know about the race at hand.

I run my Impreza STS due to a swaybar change, which the Prius could use too. The Prius was bought as my commuter car, to save miles on the Impreza, but I find I actually enjoy driving it. It has been a pleasant surprise (except the seats).
