I can usually explain in detail why a design doesn't sit well with me. With the Bentley Continental GTC, it took me a while to understand why.

But now I know:

They aren't identical, obviously, but the similarities in their cartoonish shapes are too strong.

Took me a while to see the connection, but it's there. Somewhat faintly, but it's definitely there.

I agree there are similarities in the "look" of both vehicles with the top down, but I still think both would be fun to drive around.

Find copies of pics 1 & 3 using cars of the same color ... it would be much more "convincing".
