Didi 7th gen Civic Coupes copy Mitsubishi Mirages/Lancer Coupes ?

Look At These two Cars. The front wont be Obvious,
but when u look at the sides and the back side.
they do look alike from far away. Hopefully,
Honda didn't copy Mitsubishi. that'd would be a nightmare.









as you can see the honda civic looks
like a makeover of a mirage.

Re: Didi 7th gen Civic Coupes copy Mitsubishi Mirages/Lancer Coupes ?

I'm at work Blury eyed, from looking at engineering drawings all day, and a little buzzed from all the drinking done this lunch hour; But i can clearly see that there is no resemblance.

Honda has always been unique with their designs. If anything other companies are copying Hondas design. Lots of civic and accord copies out there. Take a look at some of Hyundai, ford and saturn designs. And thats just the tip of the iceburg.

Everyone copies everyone else didn’t you see that episode of the Simpson where the creator of itchy and scratchy went bankrupt for copping the idea from a bum…

Re: Didi 7th gen Civic Coupes copy Mitsubishi Mirages/Lancer Coupes ?

yeah i agree the rear is styled to look more like a focus. Keep in mind back in 2000 when the 7th gen first came out, the focus was a hot seller, especially the hatch. The front is just a restyled version of the 6th gen civics.

The 04-05 front ends, look similar to the 97-02 accords.

The mirage was always a crappy seller, thats why mitsubishi just renamed it lancer. Why would honda copy style cues from a car that doesnt sell?

Similar cars. But I dont think anybody copied each other. The Civic looks better imo & more luxurious/better quality compared to a Focus or a Mits Mirage.

Mitsubishi Mirage has been discontinued since 2002. The Honda Civic always seemed to look better compared to other cars in its price range & same year built, imo.

2 doors, 4 wheels, 2 taillights. Yep, I'd say they copied it alright.
