If the goal was to look cool then they failed BIG TIME.

If they wanted to rip off a GT then they did well.....but WHY????

I don't think that paint scheme could possibly look bad on ANY car. It's arguably the most prominent paint scheme in racing history.

I think it looks nice. I wouldn't paint my car that way, but it looks good.
I don't think it so much of a rip off from the Ford GT as it is a homage to the GULF race car. It also seems to belong to Lambo of Frankfurt, so it could be a promotional paint and stickers, much like the Sharpie car.

Doesn't work without a curvy nose, but at least it's original. If they'd made the front "swoop" lines straight and angular like the car, it'd work better.

This is a rant so I apologize in advance to those I offend.

Hey we all respect the GULF colors.........as a Lamborghini owner I can tell you those ICONIC colors should ONLY be on cars that raced it. If you want an homage put in on a 2005 Ford GT..

Personally I think it is one of the coolest paint schemes every devised....it doesn't belong on a Lamborghini. I think it displays a complete lack of imagination and a lack of understanding of endurance racing history. Lamborghini has never participated in it. Would you put SILK CUT colors on a Ferrari?

This is worse that the idiot that who painted his murci to look like a fighter jet. More money than taste, it shows a complete lack of a racing knowledge and common sense. Why not paint it pink like the pig...however I doubt they even know what I am talking about. It's a complete waste of time.

Spend the money wasted on the paint job on an education.
