I have never thought they looked the same.

If anything the new BMWs have copied the WRX sedan rear tail lights, but thats the only ***-end look alike I see.

For some reason, IMHO the Mazda 6's look like WRX's. Then again, I took a lotta acid in high school.

Yes, its called a "Toyota WREcho". Noticed this in 2001

Also, there's the not as striking similarity found in the "Kia WRio"
