    Motortrend 200-mph Top Speed Wallpaper

    Check out:
    http://motortrend.com/multimedia/wal...eed/index.html
    Wallpapers with the Ferrari Enzo, Porsche Carrera GT and the Ford GT, all in red. I didn't think it was necessary to save and post all of the wallpapers as it wastes UCP's space but I have included some pictures.
    I really hate how Motortrend puts that big-ass writing of theirs and sometimes in the most inappropriate places.

    well, motor trend went out and borrowed/bought those three cars in red, i think they deserve to put their label there, for copyright purposes.

    btw, imo, the porsche carrera gt looks horrendous in red, silver and black are the only ones that suit it... maybe white.

    I don't think you have read it properly, I said 'big-ass' writing, they could make it smaller and keep it in the corner, not over the cars.

    EDIT: I think the Carrera GT looks quite good in red. I've tried the colour configuration at their site and found that even yellow looks good but I would have to say that on a car like this, nothing beats metallic paint.

    yep... i agree... it looks terrible! silver and black is better... or maybe orange? if there is any...

    Only yellow but you could always get a custom paint on it.

    well, thats what i was explaining, anyone can just crop out the motortrend writing if it was small and in the corner, by placing it over the car in big writing, chances are that it won't be tampered with.

    Ah, I see your point, sorry. Still horrible though. It just ruins the beautiful creations of human imagination (I'm talking about the cars ). And it would have been better if a Lambo Murci would be instead of the Ford GT. The car is nice but I'm still not convinced a $100,000 CDN Ford would sell very well.
