kind of looks like a facelift of 10 year old car... interior is much better than exterior.

Front LED is copy from Lexus, the rear is 99% Hyundai Genesis! Ohh well, like everyone says, it will sell regardless.

between the 2, i would probably choose Honda for the looks. the new Camry looks sharp, but not substantial, the accord get that "huge" feel in the front and back, which give driver a sense of safety when doing car shopping.

Let put aside the whole Honda copied <__________> and be grateful it didn't turn out to be a monster like the current gen.

He's talking about the checkmark design.

LED headlights were first on the LS600hL, so is Audi stealing from Lexus?

I don't think Honda cares about Hyundai, they're after the Mercedes E-class:

For the side profile they went after the BMW 5 series.

So Lexus front, BMW side, Mercedes rear. The luxurification of the design is complete.

LED DRLs from Audi, LED headlights from Lexus.

Lexus and Audi use both.
