Based on the previous Corolla Altis (I recognized the armrest on the doors.). Both are powered by Mitsubishi engines.
F3 R (Hatchback)






ToyotaFreak
F3 Sedan. Rear end is an exact copy of a pre-facelift Honda City/ Fit Aria. Doesn't match at all!

You're right. It doesnt work!

It looks reaaly ***** IMO! The rear of the hatch is looks like it's from a Holden Viva for crying out loud!
ToyotaFreak
Byd is the name of the company who made these cars (They manufacture batteries for cell phones, before they went into the car manufacturing business.).

The same company also makes a pirated Renault Megane CC with a Mercedes Benz CLK front end!

I know there is a Ferrari bodykit for the Peugeot 406. I did hear something about a MR2 once I think.

I think it was in china where they made the fake ferrari and when ferrari found out they just raged.

that first red hatch looks like it has the front end from the Toyota Altis or the us spec 9th gen corolla and then the rear end looks all Holden/daewoo viva hatch.
read about this before, there really isn't a copyright law for car design so they can knock off whatever they please

Nope, it was Italy.

Those Pontiac Fiero-based Ferrari/ Lamborghini kit cars/ replicas are very common in the US. Nothing to do with the Chinese made cars (Which are blatant copies of the original, right down to the interior and/ or engine or made from grafted on mix n match body parts that don't match.).
