    They are pretty much mixes of multiple cars, there is no official statement about which cars they were based off.

    I see the resemblance.

    Suzuki Swift 85 [That is what I searched]

    Third Gen Honda Civic [Gabe is quite fond of old Honda though, as he's made clear on these forums countless times]

    Also lots of cars look close to this but not as close as that Honda can match.


    Citroen Saxo SX

    I think the sunburst is kinda based of around 2007-2009 Mazda 3 or at least resembles it.

    It's pretty hard to not make a car that came from parts of others that belonged to the same group it was made to represent.

    If you compare various Japanese hatchbacks from the 90s, you'll find quite a few features that are common in the majority of them.

    Fictional content is only different from non-fiction, due to a lack of it occurring in reality before, and a fiction can even contain snippets of real life events.

    If you want to be truly original, fantasy would be the ideal category of vehicle style that you'd aim for. You still have to make a style that each part of the car belongs to, or else it won't even work as a fantasy car. (see pontiac's moonwell for a forum-based example.)

    Or you could make a supercar that looks like no other, as lots of supercars tend to look very different from each-other.
