Anyone else think that mitsu. might be copying a little? The taillights and overall body shape.... seem to be very similar.

And the Lexus IS seems like a copy of the Italian designs. These days car companies follow certain trends, it's difficult to be really original (without looking too weird) and appeal to the masses. Actually I think that the new Lancer resembles Alfa Romeo 156 the most. But at least they knew who to copy.

Squinting hard enough, all cars start to look similar.

Yeah, the new IS was what I first thought of when I saw the X's back end. You'd have to be blind to not see the similarities.

Glad that someone noticed and created a thread because I extremely doubt that this was covered before here in any other thread or 10. Awesome find.

What was found? Two cars look similar. Well big news.
The front looks like an Audi, the back looks like an Lexus IS.
People mentioned this somewhere in the forum threads at least once.
So what are we gonna do? Suggestions?

I was being sarcastic in my previous post, I guess you missed that.
This "new Lancer/Evo looks like..." topic has been beaten to death already. No need for new threads.
