So, now there are two new ugly cars. I swear that 6-series looks like a toyota solara. Perhaps that is that car that was copied.

At first I didn't want to believe it because I was going to trade my X5 for the 6, but when my wife showed me a pic of a convertible solara and a convertible 6 series side by side I had to agree. There was (is) a similarity in the way they look. I now drive an MB.

There is no comparison. I guess it's subjective.

But hey, the GWagon looks like a Model T Ford...

Why is this in the SLR forum btw?
