- dlp211 10y agoI don't think OP intended to mean exact replica, but more or less, why aren't mid-range sedans made to look more like the exotics. In other words, more corvettes, less impalas.
- krona 10y agoIt's more nuanced than that though, because OP presumably is not talking about a specific model, but rather one with the likeness (and possibly sound) of a Ferrari. For example, I don't know what the next Porsche model is, but I know I'll be able to recognize it when I see it because they are so distinctive.
