For me, and I assume quite a few people, it's easier to distinguish gen 3 and 2s than gen 5, which look like many other small sporty cars because Toyota has made it more conservative looking.

You'd be surprised that driving different cars does draw attention. I got very few compliments and noticed very little attention in my LSs, my GS350 got compliments and drew peoples looks and my S560 gets a lot of attention. Last week it was complimented by the pharmacist at the drive through, and when I came out from my office there was a guy walking around it looking at it, thats pretty surprising given its 4 years old and at the end of a long design run. Obviously nobody gives the Pacifica a second look but I also would catch people looking at the Jeeps, especially the last one we had because it was an Overland and in a good color.

And when I am enthusiastic about a car, I really really am that.
I take pics of them and even have an album of those pics, go on over and talk to owners anytime I can (most love talking about their history with the brand), know their history, watch movies (even bad ones) because the car is a big part of the movie, spot them easily on highways and byways, and bore the living hell out of my wife about it.
And yes, I do not consider a Prius to be a luxury brand, although the Tesla Y is now cheaper than the Prius in Europe, so I guess they're both economy cars lol

The gen 5 Prius looks like any other sporty car, all those design awards notwithstanding.
