  • Golf VI draws inspiration from Corolla



    That's just downright scary!

    Heh. The problem for me is that I've owned a '98 Corolla for 8 years and need a change!

    ummmmm. i don't see any similarities at all. i think the mkVI looks more like the astra CD than anything.

      Yeah, I don't see it either... apart from that they're both hatches.

        Oh, and the Golf was the original Hatch, so the Toyota stole that idea from VW in the first place anyways!

            Sorry dude, just don't see it. The Mk4 looks more like a corolla than the Mk6.. And the Mk4 looks nothing like a corolla!

                hmmm not sure i've seen the features on a car vertically aligned? most headlights tend to be side by side and most wheels are also on the horizontal plane. seats also tend to be aligned that way. come to think of it most roads are more or less horizontal.

                    I see absolutely nothing there.

                    I see more relationship between the Mk5 and the last model Renault Clio.

                      Look at the side profile of an A3 5 door and you'll see where the previous gen corolla came from.
                      I can't see a resemblance here at all sorry, the MKVI golf looks like a golf to me...

                          no similarity at all unless it is because they both have metal and plastic in the constrution

                            what, you mean like VL-VZ commodores, old ford fairlanes (box shaped ones), old magna's, ford TX3's..... i have just been looking out my window at some of the cars within the last minute that have gone by that are really horizontally aligned.

                            there is no similarity at all. there are an absolue bucketload of cars that are front end horizontally aligned.

                            i think, however, your corrolla DID inspire the design for the Holden Nova....
