Default Lime Green A8 - Debadged - Color Matched Wheels - License Plate

spells out a famous Italian designer brand name that starts with "G"

Wow. Spotted on Hampden today. Very interesting, and apparently custom, color and detailing.

Anybody on here?

Why would anyone openly admit to owning it?

Default Hmm. It actually kind of worked...

It was definitely less green than you might be imagining, and more yellow. Kind of like if you mixed 90% Imola with 10% of the Porche green on this car.

Also, the only two colors on the car were black and this lightly greenish yellow. The grille, audi rings, wheel centers, and other trim was all black. The body of the car and the outer rims of the wheels, that might normally be polished chrome, were the green color.

Anyway, I was more fascinated than repulsed by it. Because it was more yellow than green it's better looking than my original description might have implied.

Default Why, does he have a tatoo of that or something?

I was trying to figure out why someone would put that brand on their license plate. Either they are somehow involved in the business, or it is some rich woman who loves the brand.
