It’s an honest to God midsize wagon.

That front end is scary close to the newer Mercedes ones...

Man, that’s a Toyota Highlander.

THAT is a Toyota Highlander

It’s actually a Chevrolet HHR

I saw the FP post about the base A-class from yesterday while I was eating breakfast this morning and then when I got to work and parked next to a Highlander I was like hey that looks a lot like that new MB front end. Then I saw BlueMazda2's post while eating lunch and was like screw it I’m gonna see how this looks.

It’s actually a 1998 Toyota Corolla DX.

My statement still stands. I want the base A Class.

that could be true since Toyota hasn’t changed any engines in the past century

Coming here for this. If there was a Chinese knockoff of a last-gen Highlander, it wouldn’t look any closer than this.
Warm take: that Highlander is still one of the nicest looking cars on the road.

I do too. The A200 with the 161 hp engine and a 6-speed manual sounds pretty awesome.

That may be the least Mercedes looking Mercedes ever. Seems bland.

I’ll take it with the automatic pls.
![]() 03/06/2018 at 15:06 |

The auto is a 7-speed dual clutch right? That should be pretty awesome.

I’ve been in an A250 with the DCT and found it cool.
Said A250.

Wait so the thing in the picture is NOT a Toyota Highlander?

It’s definitely not a Highlander. (It totally is my 2-minute Photoshop of a Highlander after seeing this and thinking the nose looked a lot like a 10-year old Highlander I just saw in the parking lot.)

The lines on that car in the link actually make me think Volvo C30

Come on, we know that’s the new X3. BMW and Toyota are the ones that have the relationship.

I see some similarity. The Volvo has bigger hips though. I actually don’t think the MB looks much like the Toyota really besides having the same headlight and grille shape. I was just bored a lunch and having a little fun with it.

This feels like some merging of a Highlander, HHR, and a badge.
![]() 03/06/2018 at 16:13 |

I just put the badge on the grille and wheels and lowered the Highlander a bit. Any HHR is unintentional, although I can kind of see it now that there is less space between the tires and fenders.

It actually looks very HHR at a quick glance. The front, especially. It just looks like it has a weird tail end and obvious the badge is missing.

You got me, I want one
