If you can't see it I'd advise the same.
What BS are you harping on about?
If I can't see what? There is nothing remotely similar.






If anything, it could be said that the FG looks remarkably similar to the VE in this area..The rear doors look almost identical.


And I don't know what you mean when you say the Falcon was the first, when it was the VT Commodore that started this trend well before the AU/BA was released.

Actually stevz the EF-L started the trend at least when it comes to Falcon v Commodore. Hehe.

I think what's bunts is getting at is that the VE cabin mimics the AU-BA cabin which had a straight shoulder line and solid C pillar, as opposed to the VT-VZ cabin which had a round shoulderline and segmented C-pillar.

There is some method in his madness, but no point arguing as when it comes to design everyone 'copies' everyone else.

I thought it was the EA that started it off, not the VT.



The EA is also a better looking car, at least in my opinion.
