Yup, Hyundai has been known for copying Honda headlight designs. Such as the old Accent copying the Honda Civic and the old Sonata copying the Mercedes E-Class.

The front grill does resemble the 1s they put on a couple later moodel celicas.

Hyundai is stealing designs from other manufactures... that is unheard of! Haha yeah right... Hyundai Sonata looks like it stole the front end from the Subaru Legacy and the rear from a Honda Accord.

I am suprised the Tiburon doesn't look like the new Civic SI and a Mustang.

I am suprised the 're-designed' Tiburon doesn't look like the new Civic SI and a Mustang.
