Not really, the cosmo has been a Mazda model for a long time like from the 1960s. Those models I showed came out around 1990 and lasted to 1995. If anything the SC300/400 is a rip off of the Cosmo.

Agree. But to be fair, they came out at the same time, and they don't really look the same. so can't really say which one is a rip off.

Remember, only a limited number were 20B TT. I did love the back seats though.



Oh, and doesent the Infinity J30 look more like a Sc?

Well, they better. BMW is making 1 series and will be eating up their market share. So Hyundai might as well make some luxury cars to offset that.
