10 Expensive Rides With Parts Borrowed From Cheap Cars
Just because a car is ludicrously expensive, that doesn't mean all of its parts are uniquely milled from unobtanium. Occasionally, supercars borrow parts from much cheaper cars, and occasionally their unique parts look identical to those found on very ordinary motors!

you forgot mirrors of vw corrado on mclaren f1 and Aston Martin DB7 and Mazda 323F is not the same
The Aston Martin DB7 actually uses the Mazda 323F rear lights. They look rounded due to the plastic trim covering them. Look up DB7 rear lights and you’ll see :)
FORD MONDEO AND ASTON MARTIN
Jaguar XJ220 used Rover 200 rear lights!
Lotus Exige uses MG TF wing mirrors
Dodge Viper and Mitsubishi 3000GT shared door mirrors.
Ford RS200 and Ford Sierra tail lights :)
The whole RS200 is basically built with parts from parts bin raids.
Both is ford, so it not count part share.
im still surprise no one ever mention this
Thank you! I thought I was the only one who sees this
WOW! I didn’t even see those reflectors :O
Same but not the same. Koenigsegg makes their parts pretty much all by themself
What about the Koenigsegg CC prototype with Daihatsu Applause rear lights…..
Stop kidding yourself with #3, those are blatantly different light clusters. The Daewoo couldn’t even house LEDs.

I don’t know why but I’m hyped when i see 323F
