Rep Power: 0 my ex g/f had an ION. i personally think the Quad Coupe has a very nice looking nose. and the "Access Doors" are very conveinient. the interior however, is the same as all other gm's, even caddys. ceap materials, drab colors/textures, poor fit/finnish, very unsupportive seats( i couldnt be comfortable driving it more than 15 minutes. the seating position was at an awkward position, and im not tall or short. im about average, 5'10"

Rep Power: 0 with the exception of A/C and a CD player, you feel like youre getting into a 17 year old honda. honda was good quality then, as it is now dont get me wrong, but honda has made leaps and bounds to get where it is today.

Here's a real life picture of the Cobalt. I do hope you notice how big the headlight is compared to the 04 Civic.
C'mon, can't you just tell from my sig that the 04 Civics has a tiny headlight and its obviously longer. That is why I said "it doesnt come close" and compared the Cobalt to Matrix.
WOW! This Cobalt really looks like a Civic

but I do drive a gti... and most people don't like hatches... so maybe i have different taste.
THe new c6 vette is pretty decent, and with gm trying to play catch up, I almost have faith that this car wont suck as much as their older stuff.

Rep Power: 0 y'know some people say that immitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but this is a disgrace and a slap in the face to all of us who own hondas! i cannot stand it when these f***ing retaded domestic companies coem up with a new design only to show the world that the best they can do is rip off an excellent car companies proven design! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I HATE DOMESTICS I HATE DOMESTICS I HATE DOMESTICS HONDA FOREVER! but also to drive my point home even further about domestic manufacturers trying to copy other peoples' designs: a while ago chevy was about one step away from putting a a malibu ss with a prelude motor into production but i think that time they actually asked for honda's permission to use the engine. i read about that in scc

Rep Power: 394 I dont know why this discussion is bashing GM and its designers. Maybe we should bash Honda designers because they did take the trunk style of the 4-door Focus. Oh wait, no one on this site probably wants to hear that, because I am comparing a "domestic" with an "import," and comparing Honda and Ford, because supposedly the 2 companies are in different leagues. Pot kettle black what?? Maybe we should look at 2 other companies, Toyota and Mazda.
Corolla
Mazda 6
You make the call.

Rep Power: 0 Look, I think everyone is over-reacting. Unless a company wants to risk millions of dollars by trying something new and completely bizarre with their front end/rear end etc. there will be recycled ideas. Simple as that, Id like to see one of you guys draw a front end or rear end that has no resemblance to anything that was ever put on the market.
PS. the tailights of the Corolla and the Mazda 6 look pretty different to me
