i assume that is a wrap

and do not forget taste is subjective and regional, it is also affected by cultural influences and fashion trends

in many parts of the world we are looked at as the most boring beigists when it comes to specing colours smile


and i would happily drive that lambo around wink

I would. It's probably a wrap and white underneath. Looks pretty damned striking to me.

A removable wrap. Big deal.

I think it looks ok personally. An Aventador is so outrageous anyway, it makes no difference.

There's an immaculate 993 Carrera near me, that's ruined by purple paint job, red leather, and wood vener dash.

Now that is an eyesore.

Nearly bought a 997 cab a couple of weeks ago , drove perfect , was immaculate low milage car in speed yellow which I quite like ( far too many silvery grey, black derivatives ) but it had savannah interior ( beige tan colour ) which I also quite liked
but the combination of the 2 just looked a bit odd and the nagging doubt I would have a nightmare to sell it on after drove me away .

That said I then bought a green car with a Green interior ........

Most cars seem to be ruined by a flat pink colour.

Car fans both male and female usually hate it. Only prissy types seem to have any interest.

^^ what he said. It's definitely in keeping with the local style of Dubai and bet the blue chrome looks pretty stunning in the bright sun out in that region.

It's not to everyone's taste but remember it's only a non-permanent wrap on a black car. The owner's just having fun.

Now if you're talking bad colour combos then it might be worth turning State side. They're fond of odd coloured interiors that really don't work with the exterior!

Have seen cars with green interiors in blue cars, and all cream interiors are popular

Here's a green interior to look at... No wrap will cover this!

For me, it's white cars with beige/cream interiors. Especially interiors where the seats/door cards/dashboard is a sea of beige. I think it looks dreadful.

However, we're all individuals and some people wouldn't like my dark blue car with black interior I'm sure.

Deadmau5 has always gone against the grain with regards to most things, including music (and cars)! He's doing the Gumball 3000 in this I believe. Fair play to him!

Pro cyclist Tom Boonen has had his track day 458 wrapped very tastefully by an artist for some charity or other...

I would not normally consider a green combo but I think being an Aston it works well and looks a bit different without being garish
