Delete if repost but I havent seen any thread about this Concept

I think it looks great even though there is some Audi in the grille, 5 series in the dimesions. Even the wheels look like they are from the M5, and overall I see some CS Concept in the bodywork. The exhaust arrangement for example.

The Asians will rip off anyone's look (I'm half Asian, so no flaming).

Hyundai is the primary culprit. Now Suzuki is looking to make a Lexus LS, slash M5, slash Audi A8 knock-off? Puh-lease. Can you say identity crisis?

Oh yeah there is some Lexus in it too.

+1 about copying. I'd rather see a manufacter's entire model range being ugly rather than copies, at least it would be original.

Hyundai are really annoying for that. The new Genesis is a cross between the Lexus LS/5 series and the new Genesis Coupe is a cross between the G37 Coupe and Lexus. Let's not even start on the drooping windows...

You can see the blatant design copying; but still. That's a good looking Suzuki.
