"Vicente Esteve" (vicente-esteve)

Lamborghini are the only exotic car company I know that makes a good number of print ads. But, their print ads don't appear in your mundane "Oprah Magazine" or "Popular Science" weekly literature. They appear in mags with ads of overly complicated watches made out of a composite of Mermaid Skin and Kevlar, and watch dogs smarter than their owners.
Lamborghini tried to make their Aventador ads sophisticated, artistic, Renaissance-like and just italian. Things got a little out of hand though, and the way the paintings are designed and executed are just too visceral, too intense, too lethal even, to the point that I am disturbed by them. Take a look at them, and see what I mean.
What are your thoughts, Beautiful or Baffling?

Tasteless, overwrought advertising? Sounds like they know their market well.

Both beautiful and Baffling just like the Aventador. Beautiful exterior and Baffling speed.

Haha, pretty much. Still, better than the Fiat 500 ads they just released, my god are they seriously tragic.

Advertising as subtle as the cars they sell.

Exactly right, but probably they took it too far on the evil.
