    Pretty much, you need to identify cars that look similar to each other. It doesn't matter of why, as much as atleast it's similar.
    Example/Start:


    My reasons for the i3 to be alike to the Isetta 300:
    • Similar naming - i stands for Isetta, and 3 is short for 300.
    • Body style - Both micro-cars.
    • Design - Some of the Isetta is inspired into the i3, like light placement, roof shape, and fenders.
    • Popularity - Both have been noticed, although for different reasons, but are still famous nonetheless.

    They came out of a cooperation between the PSA Group and Mitsubishi, exactly the same car except for badges, front and some fancy chrome

    I've seen those Outlander gens before, with the sliver taillights.
    Also, I find the i8 and Vision Maybach 6 similar because they are futuristic, are one of the most popular, both German, both 2-door, and both luxurious.

    Peugeot 106/Citroen Saxo. These two are so similar that it's actually easier to explain the differences, than it is to point out the similarities, so here goes:
    • Different front ends
    • Different tail lights/hatches
    • Different interiors (with the only real difference being the dash and steering wheels)


    Why are they so similar? Because they're exactly the same car. Same chassis, same engines, same every damn thing. There is no mechanical or practical difference between the saxo and the 106, save for a few optional extras. The Saxo was aimed at a more mature and up-scale market, whereas the 106 was the bare-bones cheap alternative for the youth.

    If I remember correctly, I have never heard ANYBODY call a Camaro a "Pony Car." The Mustang is accurate though.
