Mazda Vs. Acura Styling
I am currently in Chicago right now. I just saw a Mazda with some sort of eyebrow mod. on his headlamps. I might just be going crazy but the styling cues on the newer Mazda vehicles somewhat resemble Acura styling cues.

The auto manufacturers have been copying from one another for years. Just this morning, I was thinking how the Pontiac across from me had taken it's grill design from BMW. It's only going to get worse as the independents are absorbed into the giants - welcome to the age of badgeneering! :P
Here'a a new one - Subaru is part of Nissan!?! My latest Infiniti lease bill lists Subaru FInance...

Don't judge a book only by it's exterior. The interior is nowhere in the ballpark of the TL. I was considering the Mazda 6 at the time, but immediately took it off the list when I was the inside.

Mazda and Acura do share the 5 sided grill. What is that a pentagon? A lot of cars look alike, designers are not very original and many are forced to make things look like other cars that sell.
Or u can have an original looking but fugly Bangle Beater!
And Suburu is a part of GM. NIssan is a part of Renault (go Frenchies ,lol).

Ah Renault! First car I ever drove was a Renault 14, back in the mid-80s!! Don't know why they won't try again over here - they had some good cars in the 90s. Still a big seller in the UK, along with Citroen.
Maybe Nissan's finance division is "helping out"

My bad, didn't mean to offend any Mazda owners. Bobzmcishl is right. Can't compare two different classes of cars. Although, Mazda should look into better designs and material for the interior.

The Mazda 6 is definitely a looker. If I were looking for a replacement for my wife's Accord, the 6s (this is the V6 version) with Chrome appearance package would be near the top of the list because the newer Accords are fugly. I simply have not adjusted to that nasty look. It'd be either that or the Ac TSX.
