That would be like saying that the first timepiece ever created should technically be the only one and all others (Rolex, Patek, Zenith, Etc.) are all "fakes" because they aren't the original design. Just the same, watches that resemble my Submariner (like the one from Invicta) is perfectly fine because it's an Invicta. They aren't trying to pass it off as a Rolex. That's just flattery.
I've yet to see a fake car. I'm not talking about a body kit. I'm talking let's say, a Prius, labelled as a Prius with all the same badging but made completely in Korea or China with completely inferior parts that are prone to fail. And if one did exist, I would never purchase it.

Please don't lump Korea in with China. haha Korea's car game is pretty nice. At least in Gangnam. Lot's of people rock German cars, BMW's are getting hugely popular there lately for example. But they also have all the domestic stuff like Hyundai, Kia, Samsung... which are legitimate brands. The CEO driver car to have there is the Equus. CHINA on the other hand, knock off city!
