But to me, aside from that basic shape, there is absolutely NOTHING aesthetically similar to the FR-S. So "very similar" doesn't cut it for me.
Semantics on the use of the words "very similar" but I don't think the term is wrong. To my eyes at least they are indeed very similar. Certainly not almost identical or exactly the same but similar.

You do realize we're talking about the front-end only?? I can't tell if you're trolling

@brianhj
In your perspective, did you check what the new corolla & Camero looks like? They look like that.


OR you are just insecure?

Yesn they are similar also but not as similar as the Prius C. Please see the pic where I compared the two. No, I'm not insecure.

Basic shape and arrangement perhaps. Loads of other things that make the two cars vastly different in my eyes and hence, not very similar, but I think we should agree to disagree on that account.

I might as well be. This thread seemed like a troll thread from the start.

Same idea, The designer is using the same facial design, they can only change it so much & is bond to play around with existing parts.

If you keep on pushing it, I will see you as trolling today & ignore.


Another thing is that You need to know they might have similar front ficial in photo but vastly different in person. Just like How Brz front end is.

Nope, never giving up! It is a fight to the death. Which means you have the upper hand since I only have about 20 years or so left.

Haha. In that case he might defeat me.

Plus that Flanders personality gives him more years.

The joke is on all of you! That is really the re-styled 2017, turbocharged, four wheel drive, KERS assisted, Scion FR-S and GT86.

I made a simple observation about cosmetic similarities and even provided a visual example of what I was referring to. How is that trolling?? You turned it into "GUYS HE THINKS A PRIUS IS AN FR-S WHAT THE FUCK"

By the way, you're wrong, the genesis and the prius are not the same cars.
