Martini paintjobs don't look good on everything

In reply to alex:

How could I have forgotten about that. Looks awesome.

Hum.... wonder how it would look on the Celica.

"We thought there was no car do awful that it couldn't be rescued by a Martini stripe paint job. We were wrong."

It does at least have a supercharged LSx in it.

Martini & Rossi (the alcohol-makers) used to sponsor alot of motorsports teams. Probably none more famous than the rally Lancia Deltas...

"used to", indeed. The Martini livery was used as late as 2002 on Ford WRC cars. I'm not sure if they're still sponsors of the Ferrari F1 team, but they were a couple of years back. Still active!

Man, the Miata sure looks bare in that old picture.

So much love for that!!

Still looks pretty similar, but with far more patina and vents.

No offense meant to 949, but those white SSR's are HOT!

I fully expected this to have already been posted.

Looks better on the 037 than the delta s4

Yeah the Martini livery is pretty great, the H3 isn't, and this is more proof of the former;

And I'm out.

Sorry. You are wrong. Martini looks good on everything...including Hummers and Geos.

the Martini Miata looks great

oh, good grief....a Martini Racing Geo? MWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!

Why does the martini logo look suspiciously like the older nissan logo?

Why does the Nissan logo look suspiciously like the Japanese flag?

Why does the Japanese Flag look suspiciously like the Datsun logo?

I tried looking for that datsun logo but I couldn't find it.

WHAT IS THIS SORCERY?????????

Why does the Dasun logo look suspiciously like a sign for the London subway?

Why does the Nissan/Datsun logo look suspiciously like a hamburger?

In honor of this thread, I just went on ebay and got an 8" vinyl Martini decal which will go on the hood of the e30 rallycrosser. Most likely crooked.

And it will look damn good there.
