| If Porsche & Ferrari made a car together.........pulling a timpo here
No its not timpo, but i did pull a timpo here Quote: That looks familiar! New Chinese sports car looks suspiciously like the front of a Ferrari stuck onto the back of a Porsche
Chinese car makers unveiled the new Suzhou Eagle Carrie at show
It appears to combine Ferrari front and headlights and body of a Porsche
Even badges of the Eagle and Porsche are similar in colour and design
Industry experts branded the Chinese sports car a 'pastiche' and 'copycat'
Patent laws in China make it easier for designs to be copied, and difficult for
manufacturers outside the country to prove an infringement
Car experts have criticised a new Chinese sports car as a 'pastiche of the worst kind', claiming it looks suspiciously like a Ferrari and Porsche combined.
The Suzhou Eagle Carrie has been marketed as an all-electric sports car which is capable of 0-62mph in just 4.8 seconds.
But on closer inspection the car looks remarkably similar to the European supercars, combining the front headlights of a Ferrari with the distinctive body and rear of a Porsche.
Even the Carrie's red, yellow and black badge has unmistakable similarities to the logo found on the front of a Porsche.
The car was unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show and is the latest Chinese auto which looks like a model built in Europe.
However the industry can do nothing about the similarities because designs cannot be protected in China.
Jim Holder, editor of Autocar, described the Suzhou Eagle Carrie as a 'pastiche of the worst kind'.
He said: 'It is so brazen that it is more laughable than a car to be taken seriously.
'The problem with these Chinese-built rip-offs is that they undermine the growing credibility of some of the increasingly competitive local makers, who are engineering and innovating new cars closer to international standards than ever.
'The reluctance of Chinese officials to stamp on copycat design does nobody any favours - well-heeled customers won't queue up to buy a product so clearly copied, and few people will want the associated mockery of being seen in one.'
Suzhou has given the car headlights which are resemble those on the Ferrari California T, while the remainder of the car could have come from a Porsche Cayman.
Another Chinese firm, Landwind, was also showing off its X-7 SUV model at the Chinese motor show, which looks near-on identical to the Range Rover Evoquem, but three times cheaper.
But in China the notion of intellectual property — which includes copyright and patent — is still a relative novelty. Patents are a lot easier to obtain, with far fewer checks that designs are original.
And under Chinese law, it is almost impossible for a Western firm to prove to a Chinese court a Chinese manufacturer has infringed a patent, according to industry insiders.
Ferrari declined to comment.

I don't even dislike it for being a ripoff, I dislike it because it's hideous.
