Ah, an automotive blog snob, I love you guys.

Just because the designer is from Audi (which I will assume you are correct as I don't care enough to research it) doesn't mean that they should pull the exact same style straight from the Audi parts bin. A little innovation wouldn't hurt.

There may have been "bulging" fenders in past concepts but the Mazda CX-7 was the first to make a statement with it in the CUV segment and the fender flares and CX-7 like side profile is obvious to anyone who has seen or been in a CX-7/RX-8 before.

To correct your improper use of car segment terminology the CX-7 is a CUV aka Crossover aka not an SUV. SUVs do not have turbo four cylinders, ride on car platforms and fit five people.

Reviewing the picture again I guess it is smaller than originally assumed but the styling similarities still stand.

Now go beat up a homeless person to make yourself feel better. And use the "Reply" function next time so I don't have to go through dozens of intelligent comments to find your shining examples of idiocy.

I know everyone says all cars borrow from each other so I guess this one should be no different. I really like the Audi Q7 tails and CX-7 side profile/fender flares.

I hope they make the cabin larger than the CX-7, offer a V6 and price it in the mid-$20Ks.

So that's what a Camry would look like with an Acura grille.

Stony Point is about an hour from Manhattan, 6 hours to Rochester. ;)

FiOS is a pretty big success for Verizon so why are they even bothering with the free LCD promotion?
