I can think of 3 reasons why you shouldn't drive your Prius at night: 1. The dashboard reflection on the windshield is annoying (until you turn down the brightness). 2. It's gets annoying bugs splattered on it's beautiful exterior. 3. Most important: People can't see how cool it looks as much as during the day.

Just make the opening a little smaller. I have a dashboard cover so I used a thin piece of wood painted black. Now you have only 2 reasons.
But there are reasons to drive at night especially: 1 The HID headlights 2 There is usually less wind and so better mpg 3 Better mpg from less or no AC load. 4 Generally less traffic 5 No need to read street signs with a nav system.
