Hmmm... not too sure what I think of that. And will it be worth the price of 2 Exiges?

Just another photoshop montage. You can see the wipers/ windscreen are actual Gallardo (look at position of instrument cluster in car, you wouldnt be able to see out!) and wheels / vents are lifted straight off a pic of an S2.

Still looks awesome though. :lol:

I did think it looked like a Gallardo with some Lotus DNA slapped over it! Probably just some magazine artists idea of what it might look like. Doesn't help that its the same colour that they usually show off the Gallardo in!

Sanjoy,


can you remove the image please. It clearly states that it shouldn't be posted on any other website.



Cheers

I think they have a bit of a cheek... this image is spread all over the net. its on more forums and web sites than you can shake a stick at... I dont see how they can claim copyright on it
Well it moves... might as well make the most of it....

If they have taken the photo then they have copyright. Doubt they would come knocking on doors but if you don't have the authors authority then you can't publish the image.

Yea you're spot on, can't believe I didn't jump to your correct conclusion that it was photoshoped in the 1st place. Think I've been lookin at too much junk photoshopey from the (non-artists) at work!
