Are you guys serious. You can't see the similarities to the BA Falcon
The BA has Headlights, so does the Kia. BA has a Grille, so does the Kia. I think Kia Chaser has been chasing one too many Kia's, : |

Very close to the Honda.
Don't see the BA similarities, but there are a few with the FG. GK

IMO, looks like they took a VZ top half and joined the with a VE lower.
That front just does not look right. |

I can see a little of that failed beefed up Aurion look.
I quite like the front, inch or two lower and it would look the goods. |

It looks like a Ford Transit.
Seriously, so many different cars listed here that it obviously doesn't look like any of them enough to be a 'copy'.

I see it!
first thing that comes to mind is a BA/BF, closely followed buy bits of Sportivo Camry and a tad of Civic/Accord. I think Kia have built an ok looking car by copying off everyone else.
