That's the way the market is going. And in the case of lesser brands than BMW, Audi, and Benz, the best way to get somebody to buy your car is to make it look like a better car than it is.

No Mercedes owner will ever be jealous of your Hyundai. But damned if they don't share some of the same styling.
Guy who rant Audi's design department, the guy responsible for all of Audi's current cars, is now Hyundai and Kia's VP of design. He has designed all the new Kias.

I don't see a single ounce of German car in this Australian one. Outside of the face and tail, the rest of the body looks like the G8.
