    It is odd the some people with such little taste should be blessed with so much money...

    I'm not sure about in the UK, but in the US, mounting holes for the license plates are drilled when the car is delivered to the dealer rather than at the factory. Thus, this car (with no mounting holes) suggests the paint scheme was either done before PDI at the dealer, or (more likely) it's a wrap which covers the holes.

    If it's a wrap, who cares. It can be removed.

    my thoughts exactly. At least a paint scheme can be changed.

    I guess someone didn't like the lines. Could be that, or maybe they were less than thrilled with their factory paint finish. :eek:

    Well...it's certainly not for me, but I will say it is interesting, and not necessarily in a bad way. Hey...it's just a toy! If it makes him smile, why not?

    Well each to his own I guess but that really ruins the look of the whole car.

    I agree

    It's a tired cliche to sit and tolerate and accept diversity such as this, "to each their own" can be said. "Live and Let Live" is a good policy. But this looks stupid. It just does.

    It's funny for about 3 seconds and then you just sit wondering about other people's tastes being so different and far away from your own.

    On the front hood there's a woman dancing facing towards the right and a man's profile in the other direction. It's just one of those tricks on the way the brain sees things.

    bad taste without money is nearly invisible. financial success does not require taste. some say it is in fact a disadvantage!
