Default Imitation is....

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Check out this web site:

In particular, look at the photo of the Rx-8. Looks a lot like an S2000 to me.

The Stook is a rip of many other cars, so don't go there...

Yes it is..

You guys remind me of Macheads who think Windows was stolen from the Mac OS....(The mouse w/GUI was a Xerox creation which was borrowed from other tiny projects)..

Rather own a HONDA than a Mazda! Imitation is a form of flattery so...

I got the pic from Elistan, so I can't take all the credit there.

The picture really highlights the similarities between the cars, right down to the start button.
