I think it's bright and will stand out well... Considering it is pink and green it doesn't look so bad. Maybe it is a love-it or hate-it paint job :p

Ideal, should get him noticed!

Though it reminds me of some muppet on PH last year moaning that Andrew Jordans livery was only done to get attention.... no ****!

I think it's... delicious

I think that it does a great job at identifying the car, but when it comes to promoting the sponsors it is terrible. A Car livery is about communicating a message, and in this case that message is being drowned out by its own noise.
Actually the only pink cars that immediately spring to mind are the Pink Pig Porsche 917 and the Vodafone Falcons in 2009, and they did a far better job at communicating the sponsor's message than this Vectra does.

Jordan's livery (which I believe was taken from Marcus Ambrose's V8 Supercar livery of a few years back) is a brilliant example of how to make a car stand out but also not take the attention from the sponsors.

Compare the pair:

I think that they're both a pretty good fit at displaying the sponsor's name.
