The Luce isn't badly designed. It's extraordinarily well-designed. It's just designed for the wrong brand. The Ferrari Luce is stunning as an Audi. I've mocked it up to prove it. Working from Ferrari's official press photographs, I replaced the badging with Audi's four-ring logo, swapped the donut-shaped rear lights for a linear design referencing the Audi TT concept, and rebranded the interior—including a subtle Easter egg on the key fob. All done in Photoshop. No AI. Just Photoshop and me.
