Looks like theyve stolen ideas from Porsche Carrera GT, Macca F1, Bugatti Veyron, Lambo and Noble...
Not very original, even if it is pant wettingly quick

they dont look similar at all IMO, the ONLY real similarity is the wheels.....
Looks nice and the engine sure is nice, just dunno about the american handling.

How about the shape of the rear lights, and spoiler to bridge the gap between them as found on the GT? How about the chunky lower lip and shape of headlights as found on the Noble. Think the similarities extend beyond the wheels Adi...
May just be another example of car design becoming stagnant, with nothing new appearing on the market, rather than an outright attempt to reproduce someone elses designs....

some of the things u mention have a vague similarity, but those headlights on the noble look like Honda NSX lights and many others....
Just because both headlights are square doesnt mean its a copy.
from front /side it looks more like those bugattis than either of the 2 cars its compared to, and i dont think the back looks similar to the porsche at all overall.
Maybe its just me...

Mentioned the Bugatti in the first post you'll see, and fair enough, you can't look at two cars without seeing some similarities. The main thing that got me was the rear compared to the Carrera GT, the way the Cadillac lights are shaped and flow up into a central spoiler. Even the treatment of the light units with multiple small LEDs/bulbs is strikingly similar don't you agree?
Refer to my comment about stagnation of design in relation to the headlights...

rear lights are somewhat porsche like ill give ya that, but a LOT of new cars have the LED lights now so i cant call that copying (pug 307 coupe, bmw 5 etc.....)
I prefer the look of it to the porsche actually, the smoked led lights look real tidy.

Of course they'll look similar. Each company is trying to achieve the best aerodynamics, hence why all F1 cars look almost identical. I love it myself
