Replying to: m4d_cow (Jul 12, 2009 6:18 am) The other day I came out of a KFC and beside me was a new S class MB same color as mine and believe it or not I thought the Genesis looked more classier, cleaner That surprised me as I assumed the MB would be automatically the winner for looks and styling. Of course my thought process is bias towards the Genesis LOL |

Few cars out there can get me gawking. I once actually gasped at the sight of RR Phantom next to my car, particularly because it looked perfectly capable of flattening my car (or at least threw mine out of the road).  When Equus comes to the state, assuming the looks wont change, we'll have a real hard time tellking whether it's a Hyundai or a MB S-clss knockoff (as they dont sell Crowns in US). Currently the only Hyundai products capable of making my head turn are Gen coupe, and probably the upcoming Kia Forte. Now that (Forte) looks cool despite Kia's obvious copying of some Honda Civic's lines. |

Replying to: toye (Jul 11, 2009 7:41 pm) That's just lazy reviewers. There's nothing new under the sun. Every car has styling features that look like several other cars. Building a car that looks like no other in any way is nearly impossible and fully suicidal. There's a very fine line between "unique" and "weird". Combine the above with size and aerodynamic constraints, and designers have very little to work with.
