i'm torn as to what to think.

i like the fact that they're using seperate lights for high/low beam.

i like the fact that they ditched those stupid body colored slots in the grill.

i'll leave it at that. i do like the interior though, it is kick ass.

To me it looks like a Civic with... Civic Si grill (a good thing), with Civic Hybrid bumper(a good thing) with 97-99 CL/98-02 Accord headlamps (a good thing).

Check the photo. There is a slight resemblance on the lower grill of the Corolla S, but its still distinctive. The headlights don't look the same. I'm not sure if I like the loss of some of the more edgy contours on the headlights, but it does seem to work well with the "family" look of the Accord.

I don't see Corolla at all. Similarities end in that they both have grill. Just take the grill from Civic Si (link below), and slap it on the Civic Coupe w/1998 Accord (or 1997 CL) headlamps.
