I don't think that they look great in photos, but in real life they are pretty sweet. I mean, similar to the LFA, can a Lamborghini look bad in any color? (Maybe pink)

Wow, I'm getting sensory overload here (not in a bad way)

Kudos to the owner for pulling this off

(I do like that top combo in green a little better)

Exclamation FYI for All...

If that was taken in the USA, it's the Yellow LFA P014 with very bad lighting exposure or photochop!!..

There is NO other Green LFA in the US, plus this LFA is showing us a Black Interior.

Edit.. It's a CHOP!! Done by "npicturesk's photostream" *** If you delete your posts.. I can delete MINE!!!

*** Note the Yellow LFA below on the same Lexus display turntable..

Hehe... if the color is screwed with because of the camera (or photoshop) then why would the reflection be any different? Hehe... that would be funny if the reflection was yellow.

look at the background and people's faces all turned green. that's color manipulation of the original picture

yellow + blue = green. so adjusting the color and crank up blue...

This screams out "I paid much more than your Porsche GT3 RS... But I still look like your Porsche GT3 RS... See my paint and my yellow brakes?"

I'm sure if this was turned into a pure track car the color would look more fitting. Perhaps some center lock wheels, diffusers and other functional stuff.

Yeah photoshop fail..

My point was that the guy who made these flickerchops, used one photo of the Yellow LFA and the created different colors from them..

The "Fresh Green" LFA color code is: 9J7. As seen on page 1
