I myself don't mind copy-cat styling, but there have been a number of complaints that the Genesis sedan is a Mercedes rip-off.

We kinda got off-topic (me included). We were originally talking about the 10-Best engines.

i think there were more 5 series comparison than MB. but honestly it's a nice mixture of alot of design cues and just works harmoniously.

acura's design direction maybe unique, but it really p!sses a lot of people off. my mom never comments on a car design, but she really hates the TL's beak. my dad, who owned 3 lexus in last 9 years laughs at RL.

anyway back to the topic, i just realized that this award is for cars that are under 54k.. interesting.. but why?

It's too bad Nissan isn't in the list anymore. (and it's kinda shame sadly considering they've been in the Ward's Engine list for what............since the Ward's best engine list even began).
