Does anyone else notice the similarities? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I was looking at a few pictures of some special edition 80's automobiles, and these two caught my eye as being very similar -- 1984 Mugen Honda CR-X and 1989 Saleen SSC. I know that comparing these cars is like comparing the Eight Views of Omi with the Liberty Bell, but humor me.

Has anyone else noticed the similarities between these two cars? And are there any other very similar yet different pairs of cars out there?

1968 Bentley T1 Pininfarina Coupe Speciale and 1969 Ford Torino Talladega

You can do that with pretty much any car from the same decade.

20s cars will look like cars made in the 20s. 30s cars will look like cars made in the 30s.

Boxy 80s cars will look like cars made in the boxy 80s.
