It's all bout brand names. Some ppl prefer Toyota brand name over Subaru. Same goes w Subaru over Daihatsu and on and on. If they can make $ from just changing the brand name and customers are dumb enough to buy it then they're smart for doing that.

yep. and lets not forget the obvious. color choices, wheels, body kits, etc. all of the above can separate the car enough to make it look like its own car. the perfect example that i can think of is the dodge stealth and 3000gt. a few exterior changes that made both cars look different, yet they still looked alike.
