The Gulf livery has been put on some of the world most venerated race cars. If you ask someone an iconic racecar and it wasn't from F1, chances are it has either a Marlboro livery, a Gulf livery, or for modern people Red Bull. Sure the Lotus colors of different decades is iconic and Mercedes being the ones known for silver arrows; but that's more like a factory racing livery, not a sponsor based livery.
Maybe you just like cars with more personalized liveries like what old stock cars of the '50s used to be, I don't know. Most people tend to gravitate towards they brand themed liveries because again, the historical association of that livery. I don't mind the Gulf theme if done right, however like the Red Bull colors, youthful dipshits overuse it and marketing just loves to oversaturate merchandise with those colors.
