This reminds me of the accord coupe I saw at Korea town at NY last year. It had a full body kit to make it look like an R34 syline! Standing beside the car was a group of young asians (koreans?) chatting while the car was blaring loud hip hop music.

I thought re-badging and the whole headlight/tail-light-from-another-car thing was over years ago. Thats the funniest thing I saw here. Other than the bumpers being permanently attached to the fenders.

One of many reasons why I went with the forester, its different, not everyone has one.

i don't have so much of a problem with the concept as it is certainly unique. execution is this car's biggest failure imo. maybe it's the lighting, but the lines look terrible. the body reminds me of a riced out bondo-mobile.
