I feel like Nissan started the recycling bin wheel trend

LCD touch displays weren’t so popular back in 1999, you know.

VW group is sharing parts and design too.

I can’t call that sharing. Those are 3 identical cars, come from the same assembly line, only a few exterior and even fewer interior parts are unique to make the different branding.

The Mclaren F1 one is absolute horse crap. You could have pointed at the sun and said: “Look the same taillights”

Actually, the selection of tailights was based on weight and when Gordon Murray was looking for tailights, it turned out that tailights from a bus was the lightest possible option.
