I dunoh, what?
Besides the girl not being in my office giving me a lapdance, what?
Ok maybe the fact that Maserati decided to tart up a beautiful car with a CF body kit. I mean it’s a GT by NAME, it needs CF as much as a Kia.
She has three breasts?
She has a bigger right biceps than I do, that’s what.
That car would look awesome in black or at least a darker color. Looks bad in white, imho.
She’s wearing a sack and she locked her keys in the car. She’s only smiling because the photographer is wearing AAA uniform.
[needlessly crass joke alert:] “Is that a slim jim in your pocket?” [/crass]
The problem is that this kind of photo is not in line with the New Depression Sensibility. Or, maybe it is. Carry on.
It’s a tranny, and I’m not talking about the gearbox.
Spoiler? I just met her!
Well, the car has three portholes in the fender, so it must be one of those Chinese Buicks. That’s just wrong, isn’t it?
-She’s wearing anything else besides shoes?
There’s no one there…
Where to start…
Black wheels and sill panel on a Maser? Modena, not LA!
Cheap satin sack dress on the model makes her stomach look bigger than her breasts, but guarantees a shot in “What not to wear”
Love the ankle shackle thing.
Best “wrong” though are the woman’s hands “calling Tokyo” on the flat panels in the back.
The video on the big screens is showing footage of the model from earlier when she was supporting herself with both hands while bent over the car…inspecting its marvelous finish?
Not enough leg!
Half-seriously, you guys have it all wrong. Although her outfit may not be as flattering to her middle as it could be, it’s all there and it’s plenty enough for any real man with an eye, experience, and the imagination of anything smarter than a goldfish!
No, I’ll tell ya’ll, the thing wrong is that her beautiful smile is obscured by shadow. For shame!
Plus, the “enlarged” pic is no bigger than the thumbnail. WTF, indeed!
The blonde with the lug wrench is gone.
No headlights.
Whats up with her modesty, she ought to be naked in the car feeling the leather against her skin. I swear women started wearing clothing around the time the wheel was invented. I feel forced to become a better person, I wanna negotiate some things with her.
Isn’t Maserati supposed to stay dignified and leave the gold chains and hair jell to Ferrari? Like Clarkson said, ‘If you’re an Italian car, going faster than a Ferrari would be like throwing up in the Pope’s lap’ (paraphrased). I would have to agree in this case. Birdcage meets Rice-rocket is almost grotesque I feel.
As for the lady, the lighting/shadow along with the blue tint make her look like Bizzaro, muscle bound and wearing a satin potato bag only reinforces this impression. Though as a branding message, classy athletic girl = classy athletic car hopefully works better in person.
Hey, froggy, what’s the deal with the “Where’s Waldo” gimmick? Seems to be working, got me off the wall.
She is wearing two ankle monitors both there from her grand theft auto charges, and she’s standing next to a Maserati that I’m guessing isn’t her own.
The dress is shapeless and ugly. The model is not. The car’s rear is garish and looks like it was treated to aftermarket stick-on plastic panels from JC Whitney. The model’s rear is not shown. White is not a good color for the car. The hall is empty. The overall shape of the car is appealing but the black out details look really cheap. Maserati got a good deal on rear lights from Hyundai.
From “The 40 Year-Old Virgin”
Steve Carrell: There’s something wrong with her underwear!
Seth Rogan: Yeah, they’re not in my mouth…
Two things – there is a car in the picture and the photo was taken too far away from the Subject.
The ugly car is distracting? Poor lighting? A photographer that doesn’t understand lighting? A car designer that doesn’t understand complimentary colors? Stop me when I get to the “right” answer.
RF, I think we have a winner:
“..there is a car in the picture and the photo was taken too far away from the Subject”
So, RF, what is it? I’m stumped, personally.
Is there some kind of sex add on the license plate?
@Bruce: I downloaded the pic and zoomed in and there’s not enough resolution to see what’s there. For all I know there’s a matching plate on the front and they both say 3M TA3.
Easy: Those Ford Mondeo rear lights are mounted upside down.
