Question:* What do you do when you want to pass the exam without studying? Answer:* Cheat!<!--more-->Well maybe it is a bit of an exaggeration to label Chinese automaker Geely as a cheat. In fact, the automaker apparently has been trying to build cars for a while but somehow can't seem to get it right. Well, they are changing approaches and looking to Lexus to provide the foundation for their struggling business. Unfortunately, Lexus has not signed an agreement to support Geely nor have any such discussions been held. Geely simply copied the IS design (among others)*with the expectation that*familar and popular*styling will do the trick for their new "high end" concept.* See the comparison below.

the back looks inspired by the 3 series too!
the chinese are too funny.
BUT i must give them props- some of these cars or parts of cars they get perfectly correct. like how the entire side of the 2IS is perfectly copied- mirror and all.

that reminds me...
