The car looks pretty nice for a KIA.
Every car is gonna look like some other car.
How many supercars have the same 4 circle lights in the rear.
Ferrari, Lotus, Nissan GT-R, Corvettes, etc

If you want something different, go look at the 370Z. And be prepared to puke...

Very nice and you have to give Kia credit for all the r&d money they've put into their exterior and interior designs.

dont think i ever said anything about lawsuits, just saying that they look identical. just like many other kia and hyundai cars have similar looks to other cars.

no you won't. you ever tried rolling down window when the cabin is submerged in water? you got no way to pivot yourself. much faster to break the glass and swim out
