I just got mine less than a month ago and so far I don't have too many complaints.
1. It's been said many times but the stock stereo isn't very good. This is very subjective and really depends on your background with audio. Most of my friends think the stereo is fine because they don't really care about hi-fi. I have a degree in sound and I've always spoiled myself when it comes to audio so to me these speakers are just terrible.
2. Highway driving can be rough. The car does't have much sound deadening so the road noise can get pretty loud past 55. Also, depending on road conditions where you are, it can be uncomfortable at highway speeds. Louisiana roads are trash so a blast to NOLA and back did not do good things to my spine. I hear good things about highways in Cali so this one may also be irrelevant to you.
3. There's a button in the trunk that prevents the trunk from being opened with any of the buttons. I didn't know about it so when I had a bag hit the button and my trunk wouldn't open, I was terrified. I haven't run into any of the other common issues yet but that may be because it's a 2014 and Toyobaru worked them out.
Don't worry about your mom to much. Mine also hated the idea of this car at first. She was trying her hardest to get me to buy a Lexus, Infiniti, or Mercedes, even offering to help pay for them. She was really happy when I finally got my car though because she knew how much I wanted it and she really just wants to see me happy, as most mothers do.
