that is not a rip off of Ford GT...Ford GT used the gulf scheme...and this guy just used it on his Lambo. makes me think of the gulf colored porsches more than anything.

It works on Porsches and the Ford GT but that's because those cars actually raced with those paint schemes in the past. Lambo has never been very prominent in racing so it just seems absurd to use that paint scheme on a Gallardo.

The reason I like it is that it has to be a dig against Ferrari. With the Ford GT being the car that beat them down and then Lambo's whole rivalry against Ferrari it has to be paying homage to that and if that is the case I love it...however I could be wrong and then I think it's hideous haha
