Default Chevy Copycat F

This is what Chevy's new SS sedan is gonna look like. Is it just me or is it pretty much a rip off of our car?

I guess the wheels are for sure a rip off and the body has a resemblance of the F. But our F looks much more refined as in its lines. Whatever that thing you call a car you posted above, it looks as if you took a standard car and smacked a bunch of aftermarket boltons on it, looks unfinished.

The rear reminds me of a G8 with my 2011 Avalon taillights while the side profile, especially the sculpting rear, somewhat resembling an F. That antenna bugs me...

Definitely looks more like a G8 than an F. Makes sense given the "Holden" as well.

How is this a rip off? Holden and Vauxaul have been making SS and VXR models of these cars for years....
