Spy Shots: Next generation BMW 3 Series pops up swathed in swirlies {Autoblog}
Nov 4th 2009 1:14PM i'm quite shocked actually that you think a honda civic looks like the 3 series. they look completely different. i could see how a kia forte would look like a civic, but even they are different.

it's scary to think that you think im doing something wrong! having a different opinion than what yours is, is wrong?! wait a minute, that reminds me of communism!... ya that's what that is. Rar, if anything, its scary that you actually might be a closet communist.

i know what inspired by is... you can look it up on google for a definition. that's not the point of my argument at all. do you all know what the Avro Arrow was? if u don't you got some time to do some research. well since the Arrow was scrapped, i could have come by after and built this fighter jet and say its got these huge engines, very powerful, and inspired by the Avro Arrow. a normal brain would think that this new fighter jet would have some of the capabilities of the Arrow and possibly even be a replacement for it, however that is stretching it quite far.
the only thing similar about this hyundai is that it's got a mid-engine layout, it's meant to go faster than the normal version of it, and it's a coupe. nothing much else.
but if it makes you happy to think you can get a piece of ferrari inspired car for relatively cheap.... then good for you! i swear there are gonna be little highschool kids with these cars, toting that it was "inspired by a Ferrari 599XX" hahah.
anyways, good nite to you all and sweet marry dreams!

Nov 3rd 2009 10:49PM If Megan Fox said, "My cosmetic inspired by britney spears..."
Is it disgrace to britney spears...... no it isn't, megan fox is good looking. if the hyundai was actually built well and had some italian design in it, then it wouldn't be a disgrace.
um mr know it all... hyundai is part of the asian 4.. you forgot nissan is in that group.
Hyundai said, "This hyundai car inspired by ferrari car"
this is "honor" to ferrari/fiat....... excuse my language but how the f*ck is that an honor to ferrari/fiat?! hahahah where did fiat come from now?! fiat owns ferrari but lets stay on topic here, fiat is NOT the same as ferrari.
It is same as,
Michael Jackson said, "My song inspired by bettles". Beetles would be the correct spelling. and this has no valid argument. please finish your thinking behind this statement....

did i ever say that the hyundai was the "equivalent" of the 599XX? um, no. i made it VERY clear that they were saying "inspired" by the 599XX.

Nov 3rd 2009 10:38PM @Rar.... actually I'm an avid BMW fan, i own and drive quite a few BMWs. i've also driven toyota, nissan, land rover, jaguar, mercedes, audi, maserati, ferrari, lamborghini, fiat, alfa romeo, gm, ford, lexus, mazda, dodge... i could go on for a long time there buddy. if anything i might be biased a bit towards a BMW, but there was no mention of a BMW in this article.
if you can't see how saying this car is "inspired by" a ferrari 599XX could be a "disgrace" to ferrari then im sorry to say, you got screwed in the brain department. to make it easier, put urself in the shoes of a ferrari chief or a ferrari customer.... would u want some young highschooler/college kid pulling up to you in your F430 and saying "hey buddy, my car was actually inspired by the 599XX!" and then burning rubber til he is gone?! really.. i could tune up a corolla, drop a sickly powerful engine in it and then go and beat F430s and lambos. should i say that it was inspired by a ferrari then?!
"even japanese..."..... what? like they're below the koreans or something?! anyways... yes there is the GT-R and LFA. were they built by tuners? no! those are ligit Nissan and Lexus cars. this is not a ligit Hyundai car. it's been heavily modified. if Hyundai came up with a supercar of their own, original design and didn't blatantly copy another manufacturer, AND it was actually both competitive and desirable/lust worthy, then i would give hyundai their due congrats. both the GT-R and LFA are competitive and desireable/lust worthy in their own regard, obviously not to the same person maybe because their prices are set in two completely different demographics. but yes, sadly, this isn't a hyundai supercar...... so im not sure what you were trying to get at with that comment.
nissan copied alfa? in the 80's? ya sorry, what would you like me to do?? are you saying that just because nissan copied alfa, hyundai is totally fine and copying ferrari? you are sadly mistaken. that argument would never hold up in any legitimate gathering.

Nov 3rd 2009 10:22PM @ ryan.... there is a difference between "inspired by" and a "rip-off".. this is a closer to a rip-off than anything.
btw open ur eyes a bit... most of those things you stated aren't true or they're a rip-off. that diffuser on the hyundai doesn't look ANYTHING like the one on the 599XX. the only thing similar about them is that they both have one! get real man!

Nov 3rd 2009 9:34PM at least autoblog can call their bluff on them saying it's inspired by the 599XX and see that it's more of a Nismo 370Z lol
nothing says italian... i definitely agree that it's Nismo if anything.

Nov 3rd 2009 9:29PM yes hyundai is trying too hard! notice the Ferrari 599XX blurb?
they're milking this genesis coupe for every last drop that they can muster up. quite pathetic because i think now they've gone a little overboard by saying this was inspired by the 599XX
