Private pilot check rides focus on visual maneuvers, I'm not clear on the advantage of using a "glass" trainer for steep turns, S-turns, stalls, etc. other than draining your checking account a little faster. Also, an extra 20-30 knots to get out to the practice area so can fly in circles? All required instrument "maneuvers" can easily be done in old technology for whole heck of a lot less money.
I've had enough new student pilots hurl in the airplane to know that I don't want a fancy interior
New guys - search out the least expensive airplane you can for the PPL. With the money you save, you'll be able to afford a checkout in something "fun" and have money left over.
