FWIW - I think that Lambo is hideous. Yikes.
FGT about 1 billion times better conceived aesthetically.
Interesting how there are always buyers for these ultra limited editions....

They’ve gone from outrageous to ridiculous. Trying way too hard just to do something different.

I’m sorry but BUTT UGLY! I display my New Ford GT quite often with the weirdest looking so called supercars in Houston. Most of them I can't even pronounce their name and the colors are hideous with interiors that don’t even match. I just stand back and watch with amazement listening to the youth discussing their purchase price and who ownes them. My 2017 Ford GT is always the one people want their picture taken with! I am completely convinced that if anyone other than Ford Motor Company produced the Ford GT it would be priced north of 1 M. Thank You Ford for allowing me to be a proud owner. Check YouTube and see who have enjoyed my GT during her first year! Under My Girl Tomy HAMON. I’m working hard and love every minute of it!

Would look much better in a solid black without the accents.
I don't think it's that "bad" looking.
They are building some funky looking cars today.
Can you say "Senna"?

Guys, it's interesting to read all of the pro and con comments on the Lambo, however the question I asked was ... Did Lambo rip off a percentage of Ford's design? No one has opined on that.

Look at the side treatment including the position and shape of aft air intakes. Look at the side window configuration including the small rear side window. Check out the front "nostrils" to exhaust heat from the radiator.

Obviously, I think Lamborghini "borrowed" some design cues from the new GT. What say you?

I don’t see any similarity.

I don't think so. Looks pretty differen't to me, and not in a good way. Definitely not my cup of tea.

I am a Lamborghini fan, but that is absolutely terrible.

Negative...Italians are way to proud to rip off styling. And besides I was offered one of the cars at the reveal, I respectfully declined. And very glad I did. It is hideous.

Marketing genius. $2.5m for a 7 year old design with a bodykit.

Looks a bit "transformer", aka, trying too hard.
