Fl5 rear reminds me of Toyota CHR SUV

[Civiz]

To start, I like all the type rs, from ep3 to fl5.


Fl5 reminds me of other cars too, like a simplified porsche or simplified fseries bmw m, but it also reminds me of stuff like CHR.

~~~~So the CHR, was introduced after xgen civics' release, always reminded me of the xgen civic, but only the C styled tail light design likewise seen in other brands Kia EV6, 8th gen hyundai sonata, etc.

Since fl5 release, I've noticed even more similarities.
Fl5 has, like CHR:

1. Cleaner rear bumper edge design compared to fk8 (like CHR, no more large supercar like artificial vents like fk8)
2. Apparently taller bumper height (like CHR; fk8's lights were larger, so bumper didn't appear to ride up as much)
3. Small bumper garnishes (like CHR)
4. Squished lights (similar to CHR, whose tail lights look like a smaller version of xgen civics')
5. Integrated wide body (unlike fk8, and like the CHR)

You started one thread on the FL5 rear bumper which I'm still not sure what the objective was. Do we need another thread on this?

This thread is about the whole rear end, and the front end in some way

Similar to how we have had one thread on a rear bumper mod, then a different thread on a front bumper mod

Circling back to that first thread. I like the FK8, truly. The styling is just not for me or I would’ve bought one…which I contemplated MANY times. I still be looking at them when I see them! Variety is a good thing!

@Civiz You know you’re poking the bear, man. And you know where this is going to lead, especially on an 11th gen forum, right? Someone will make a thread comparing the FK8 to a Gundam toy or to Transformers (probably already been done elsewhere). That would be unnecessary clutter, much like this thread. But it’s the internet and people like to post anything/everything…you know…to get people talking about it.

I like that the fk8 resembles gundam though, and I I've even posted that comparison myself, and cited it as an apparent plus/good thing

..and there's nothing wrong if fl5 appears to be similar to a CH5 (both have curvy design language too)

The only similarity I see is that both use brake pads and 4 wheels.

Thank you for the compliment.

No worries.
To many looking on the cars same time it may be obvious, but maybe to a minority of people, not so obvious

Can you do an FK8/Bugatti Chiron and FL5/Geo metro comparison next ?

I would say the fk8 is comparable to a lambo by design language. Others have said it too.

Xgen hatches were apparently lambo inspired, based on a discussion with former Honda Exec Dasuke Tsuatamori.
