I don't think face is similar, but fog light area is similar

Also I thought this was the new Camry

They look nothing alike. FRS is a million times sexier!

I could see a vague distinctin with the square mouth with the vertical c type crease on the edges, the triangular foglight mounts and the pointed headlights with a single projector beam.

Toyota did with the current Tacoma and taking similar styling characteristics and applying it to the current Tundra and 4 Runner. They went from smooth and angled to boxy.

There are some similarities with the rear tail light too in how the outer edge trails down. They're trying to establish a new corporate design language. Wouldn't call the face similar though, it has similar elements =)

The Orange/Red lines are a little alike, but the vehicles look nothing alike...at all.

Yeah, to say they look alike is kind of stretching it.

Totally different design. WTF?

Look at the shapes used, the way they interact.... completely different. The end result may look similar, but they aren't.
