    No 19's on this photo shoot. Hubcaps only! This is as ugly as she gets...... :p

    My preference is the 3/4 angle from the rear. Absolutely breathtaking.

    3/4 rear shot indeed! The designers said they made the car with the female form in mind. Perhaps that is why its curves have such an impact on some of us...

    This angle is solid.

    Definitely understand your issue with the hubcaps. I personally was repulsed when I first saw them, but began to appreciate them, particularly at a bit of distance. They definitely have a futuristic appearance. Up close they can seem artificial. To someone that knows nothing about cars, wheels, hubcaps, or otherwise... she thought they looked cool.

    I was never going to get anything besides the LE - because hypermiling - so... 'caps it is! :p

    Gotta add TomC's white beauty. Do we call this a side profile shot from 3/4 top angle?

    It seems that just about any shot from the top looking down, really brings out the Prius' best attributes.

    It's a nice car, but man is a hideous photo of it ... what a botched bokeh effect.
    Without that artificial blur that destroys all the top lines of the vehicle, it would look much better.

    I really like those basic wheel covers, they go better if the car has a dark color like the grey or blue on other threads, it gives some Mad Max vibes

    I think most would agree they are the most striking wheel covers ever put on a Prius (even better from a distance).

    The exterior doesn't impress me personally. But I'd love to see what the inside of the engine, motors and HV battery look like!

    Yeah the back of all previous gen is really ugly, even in the C, I really don't like hoy the brake lights look in mine maybe I will replace them with customized ones in the future.
