Yep, just a wee bit of resemblance here between the Lancer Sportback and the EX35.

Jan 13, 2009 - Separated at Birth: Lincoln C Concept and French Things

Not to beat up on Lincoln, but were its designers eating a lot of frogs legs and pommes frites whilst designing its most recent batch of cars?

Lincon C Concept

Last-Generation Renault Mégane

The French-inspired Nissan Micra

Because if something's weird from France, it's bound to work in the States, right?

Enough said.

Also, I think the 2010 Lincoln MKT has a little Renault Vel Satis in there too.

May 30, 2008 - Separated at Birth: Forester or Borrego?

As I walked down to our parking garage yesterday I came upon the Kia Borrego. Well, actually I came upon a new, yet totally anonymous SUV that I discovered to be the Kia Borrego. As I made my way to the front of the car, I was greeted by a familiar sight: a new Subaru Forester. Sure, they aren't identical, but geez, their faces certainly look like they came from the same gene pool. Even SubyTrojan asked me yesterday if we had a Forester parked down on P3.

When the Impreza came out, I commented that it looked like they farmed out the styling inside and out to Kia. Perhaps this is Kia returning the favor.

So, can you tell me which one is which?
