Mistaken identity

[Robert Hall]

Rolling down the freeway this morning, right around sunrise, I see a white Impala 6-8 car lengths ahead of me, in my lane. As I get closer, I notice it seems oddly narrow. Then I get closer, and notice it's missing the gold bowtie, but has a blue emblem instead.

A blue oval. D'oh.

Turns out to be a current gen Focus sedan.

Anyone else have a moment like this, confuse two different, unrelated models that up close really seem to be nothing alike, but from a distance.... similar taillights, decklid, fascia..

Been there, done that.

It's a side effect of boring design.

Oh my goodness, yes.

It's becoming quite the common occurrence ... and I simply HATE it. Yes, HATE isn't even strong enough a word in this case.
