I've never seen a paint job like this before. You would think a Lamborghini is pretty stunning all by itself, but this one really takes the cake.
Using heat sensitive paint, or "thermo paint," the car is able to change colors when warm water is added to it.
The Lamborghini reveals a giant American flag and Captain America when doused in hot water.
Imagine driving around in this puppy on a warm summer day. The way it works is that a base layer is chosen, then a layer of thermal paint is added on top of it. However, CNET reports that this kind of lavish design doesn't necessarily have the longest shelf life.
"The paint is a bit touchy. It has a four-month shelf life for application and the heat-reactive properties degrade over time with exposure to sunlight. Special UV protective additives can be added to extend the life of the paint. For a truly standout look, though, those downsides might be worth dealing with. Its time may be short, but it will be glorious."
But that's the lifestyles of the rich and famous for ya', if you can an afford this paint job, the short shelf life just isn't your concern. I mean, just watch how unfazed these drivers are when a Bugatti and Ferrari crash into each other.
Typically in temperatures 65–85 °F or higher, the car's secondary layer will be revealed. When colder, the top layer will show.
SHARE if you think this car is pretty cool!
