The "08 and "16 or the old and the new

Tell me what you want, but Gen4 is for me the best design of them all.

 

wow, that car on the left looks really dated.

 

Best years made. My 08 paint looks new to this day along with interior. Give your 08 a new paint job and it will smile like your 16

I feel the same about the ugly guy staring at me from the shaving mirror.

 

yep, my replacement isn't too far away.

 

I feel the same way even comparing my wife's '07 with my '13. Those were some ugly headlights!!

 

Well, it's the opposite for me lol

 

That '08 has a warm and friendly looking face. The '16 looks like an angry old man. Get off my lawn!

 

I think of the movie "Cars" when I see a gen 2 from the front. Sometimes I half expect it to grin and say something.

 

I think the Gen 2 Prius is the better looking car. I had one and wish I still had it. While I like the fuel economy of the Gen 4, I really loved pretty much everything about the Gen 2 Prius. It was love at first sight and purchase at first affordability. More room, more storage, did not have to take hands off the wheel for anything, etc, etc. Of course, it could have also been because its the first car I truly loved. Totally trouble free. The new one, while it returns phenomenal fuel economy, even under spirited driving, and even with all its bells and whistles is just another car to me. Ask me in a few years, and maybe I have a different response.

 

I like the new one. Very cool design, just wish they made the Prime exterior design for the standard Prius.

 

I've had many more complements on my 16 than I ever had with my 05. I don't miss the jelly bean at all.

 

And a real pain to change the bulbs!

 

I love my 2008 !!! Trying really hard to get used to new design of 2017!
