As Fox Sports put it:
This bold new livery will not only polarise fans, but confuse and frighten photographers.

From far away the word "Pepsi" can't be seen and if you didn't know any better you'd think that the logo itself was the letter O. It's already been bubbed "Maxo" by one of my friends.

Is this the worst livery ever to appear on a car?

To be fair it's a pretty horrible drink so the logo fits perfectly.

Ah, so it looks like they've decided to get 'down with da kids' -- from the 1980's..

It's not too bad after my eyes adjusted

Could've been worse if you let some top name artists on the loose http://www.bmwdrives.com/bmw-artcars.php

Neil Crompton and Skaifey were trying to be as diplomatic as possible about during the Race 1 telecast on Friday.

It's horrible but that suits Holden just fine anyway, they'll take the money any way they can!

Horrific, but I guess it will get it noticed!

I really like most of those art cars. Especially the one they used this year, as driven by Andy Priaulx.

This is surely up there in terms of a poor livery - and poor use of colours:

It is quite abhorrent. I don't think I've ever seen a livery camouflage a car's shape quite as much under racing speeds.

I quite agree. Also, I find it rather hard to get excited about teams running old-shape cars, for some reason.
