1st car for a 18 yr old, used Scion xB 2006 or used Honda Civic Hybrid 2003?

What is a better car for a 18yr old who just got his license, a used 2006 Scion xB for $9,500 (15,000 miles on it) or a used 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid (47,000 miles on it) for $11,000 (there is a 10 yr/150,000 mile warranty on the battery with the civic hybrid) (for those who say the battery is a lot to replace) the Scion xB comes with a warranty also not sure how long though.

honda, your going to love the hybrid part, and the 2006 hondas are that bad.

even though i do think the scion is a more sexy car, the honda is more practical
