CHICAGO AUTO SHOW: Who Is Kia Gunning For With The Cross GT Coupe?

The C pillars ripped off the 2006 Kia Cee'd SW's which came fromt the 1999 Kia Carens. The face came from the 2011 Sorento which came from the 2007 Kia Kue's. Will at least they didn't copy the Axiom's rear Pillar treatment. NICE!! Though it would be nice if those ORIGNAL looking skylights made it to production. But I'm sure they'll keep the traditional squared shaped panaramic roof.

That was my first thought. Good call.

Trying to be like me sportbike82 huh? But um I googled the cars and your not 100% Acurate. For example, you state that Kia copied Acura's headlights. The question is which Acura model? For example, if I'm going to bring up a headlight, I'm going to tell you where it came from. Such as, 2007 Malibu and Mercdes C class hint headlights. You can't do that though can you?

Also Aztec has slanted C pillars just like the following: Blazer, 1st generation RX, 1st generation MDX, 1st generation Saturn Vue, 1st geneation Sorento, Mercedes M, and 2nd generation Equionox. The Cross GT doens't have slanted C pillars.
Land Rover's side grilles are also found on Caddy, Mini Cooper, Ford, BMW, but only Kia would be the copycat because it's Korean.



Chevy Traverse kinks in the rear pillar design is also on BMW's SUVs as well as the Murano, Chrysler Delta and the Hyundai Tucson. AS a result the Chevy ain't Orignal.

Here I gotta show you how to be like me because you're doing a shitty job. 2011 Mazda 6 and Acura ZDX hint sides. Why would I just say, "the Acura ZDX side ripped off Mazda?" Which model? Or this, "Buick Regal's backend ripped off Acura?" Which Acura model? The Acura TL. So if you want to be me, get your shit straight and Acurate. 2013 Avalon and Fusion hint greenhouses.

Kia doens't make Koolaid. That was so corny.

So I see you want to bring up the side grille on the Cross GT ripping off Land Rover huh? Yet the 2nd geneation Saturn Vue can get away with it because it's not Korean.

"Pontiac Aztec?"
You are so blind. Where at greenhouse, front end, tail lights? Don't see it. However, I do see this: 2007 Camry and 2007 Acura TL hint headlights.

I want someone acurate like me. I'm sure God has given someone else the gift of sight just like me....where is he/her? Scion TC and Pontiac G6 hint tail lights. Ford 500 and Pontiac Grand Prix hint tail lights.

Mazda CX-5, Infinti EX and 2009 Subaru Impreza hatch hint greenhouse. Though I don't see the Aztec's greenhouse in the Cross GT though.

I see the 2013 Chevy Impala eco-sport ripped off Kia's signature grille.

Chevy Cruze and Acura RLX hint tail lights. More acuracy from me jtz: 2006 Avalon and 2007 Saturn Aura hint headlights. 2006 Avalon and VW Phaetom hint C pillars.

More Acuracy: Smart car and Toyota IQ hint greenhouse. Smart Car and HHR hint tail lights. I'm so good at what I do. I love it!!! Honda Ridgeline and Mazda Tribute hint headlights.

Oh, I don't go on the internet all day long neither. That's for people who don't have the gift of sight. I just see a car on the streets and remember every element and never forget. I'll even go to the Auto Show and look too. But never do I need to go online all day trying to bring car designs to the kitchen table. Who's next?

No one is going to bring up how the Chyrsler Town N' Country's back rear pillars ripped off the Axiom's huh?

2004 Suzuki XL7 and 2003 Lexus GX hint greenhouses. Yet I still don't see the Aztec's elements in the Cross GT.

2005 Kia Mesa, 2007 XL7 and 2012 Ford Explorer hint faces.

Chevy Volt and ZDX hint backends.
