Let's post up as many clones as possible. What are we asking about? Not the vehicles like DSM's or Plymouth/dodge neon, or that. I'm talking about cars (and I guess trucks....) that look identical, yet share absolute nothing as far manufacturing goes. To give you a for instance:
The Mitsubishi FTO
And the Pontiac sunfire
God damn pic of the sunfire won't work... Frustrating.
Anyways, post pics. Good luck trying.

Let's see them?
I always thought Mustangs looked a lot like Aston Martins.
Since the OP is into old Toyota's, how about this generation of Corolla liftback:
which bears more than a passing resemblance to the Volvo 1800ES:
Ford Puma
and the Fiat Coupe:
I wouldn't say twins separated at birth, but maybe siblings.

FTFY
Here are some rather fabricated similarities.
Both have 4 tires and a roof
Toyota made a pretty good replica of the X1/9 right down to the three spoke wheels

That's hilarious! I can't believe they tried to pass that turd off as benz quality. Was it a joke?

In conjunction with a mid to late 70s Corolla, then you win.

They have kits that you can install on a 240 to make it look like a 62 gto
If it were a series 2 E-type it would be a closer comparison visually.

I'm fairly certain that they are more than just similar looking, check out the new Disco vs the Explorer.
I seem to recall one of the FoMoCo employees here mentioning that supplying parts to RR/LR/Jag was turning out to be much more profitable than actually building them.
