The Maserati Looks Like a Buick?

Isn't It interesting has the new Maserati Sedan actually takes on A LOT of styling traits that are generally Buick? It has an voal grill, portholes, and silver doorhandles, all things that have been on multiple Buicks. Of all brands to copy, why Buick!?

For one, many cars have wide-angle grills and silver door handles - so no big deal. But the portholes are correct...they sorta copied Buick but made theirs in the shape of a rectangle.

If Buick built a car that looked (and especially performed) like that - they would make the Chrysler 300 look like an old K car! But don't worry, I'm sure Buick wont.
