You're new 'round here, aren't you. It has been noted many, many times that FG and the MY2004 onwards Liberties look similar.

Personally I don't see it, and going by the newest Subaru designs (current Impreza, Forester, original Tribeca and upcoming Liberty/ Legacy) I think it's a bit of an insult.

this isn't the best example but... THIS is sort of like it. not really tho. i'll try and find a better 1. and im not insulting any ORSM cars since i was only saying they sort of look similar to the ba/bf headlights. although they have extra little points.

i don't really mistaken them. it's more just every now and then going "they look so similar!". although i am going blind... going to the optometrist soon.

Not the headlights, but the rear quarters actually.
There is a Suby sedan that has a very similar profile of tail light to the FG Falcon sedan. Not sure what the model is?? Liberty perhaps? |

Their sotra b series with the chrome at the bottom, and the general shape. I hate the new Imprezzas, they look like cheap Hyundais/kias.

while we're on this subject, ive noticed the mid nineties model magna rear tail lights bear some resemblance to EA, EB, ED tail lights. just a little, but its enough to irritate me. no-one mention mercedes and AU!

Old Uncle Geoff said, the success of a new model is telling it apart at 25 meters to its competitors, pity such a great man was forced to Europe whilst the yanks destroyed his legacy

I did work experience at Mercedes this week, and spotted this:
![]() The wheels look the same as the FG XR6 17s except bigger, and look quite good in a bigger size btw. Not sure if either make copied but if they didnt its a really big coincidence. |
