To an extent i can see where they're coming from, but on the other hand i dont always agree.

Not much we can do, but the companies you named make premium cars. Making a $40K Mustang look like a $12K Fiesta is a bad idea IMO. Of course, the Fox body Mustangs were almost indistinguishable, to an untrained eye, from the Escorts and Tauruses. (Tauruses? Taurii? Whatever).

Maybe the worst example of design language was the late 90s/early 00s Dodge (with the exception of the trucks). ALL of their cars and minivans looked exactly the same from the front.
