So these guys won't admit it looks/shaped like a corolla, but they will admit it looks like a Hyundi.

I own an 05 Corolla XRS 6 speed and last weekend I parked my XRS side by side with the IS350 at the Lexus dealership and looked at them standing 10 feet away. They look nothing like each other. IS350 looks incredibly hot from the back with the flare fenders. The tail light side profile is the only thing that is similar.

I always think the Corolla rear look very much like a cuter version of the '02-'04 ES rear. And nope, not seeing the IS rear in it at all.

The Sonata looks like the Ford 500 and the Honda Accord had a child together. The IS 250/350 really doesn't look like the Corolla, Sonata, Accord, or Jetta.
