I finally saw a couple XL-7s on the road and mistook them both for Equinoxes. Will the same happen here?

It doesn't look significantly changed from the Nox/Torrent.

If I have time today I will play with them in photoshop. This white mesh camo is to almost easy to see the grill and stuff through.

I have seen and sat the new XL-7. I can tell you that is not an obvious rebadge of the Equinox. I can pick out some Equinox styling elements, such as the front fenders, but the rest of the vehicle has its own distict appearance. A fair amount of the interior switch gear is Equinox (maybe even a little Saturn??) more than Suzuki. Having said all of that...you could sure be far worse off than sharing a platform or some styling elements with the Equinox.

Are you sure you don't mean the new Grand Vitara?

The current XL7 is not related to the Equinox in any way.

LOL! So true...but I think many of us on here try to walk that "line" of sharing what we know with our fellow car freaks on this site who are craving info, but try to do it in a responsible way that does not jeopardize the success of the vechicle in any way (or get us in trouble in any way), and we realy on a certain degree of anonymity on here...guess its like "don't ask, don't tell".
