Please, DO NOT by any hybrid vehicle if you care for your environment!!

100% agree. If you're a real tree hugger, you would care about the lifecylce environment cost. If you're a pretender (or a businessman), you focus on one narrow thing like CO2 emissions.
I have an m3 and a Prius so I guess I'm not a true tree hugger
