best and worst picture angle of you CL?

If you could only take one picture of your car, at what angle would you feel your CL looks the best?

Personally, I'd have to say any of the front 45 degree angles, especially when I have the front wheels turned so that the front rim is facing me.

Only at times, the worst angle I think is the side (flat on) angle. The car just comes across too long. Again, only at times.

Yes!!! That's what I like to see!

WebToker, MDaniel, and FutureCL, That's the angle I like seeing, especially when you come out of the mall or from work to your car.

Type S Smokes All, ya man! That one rocks, must've crouched down pretty low to get that sweet angle.

The Last... of course it's gonna look good. That's cheating with those phat pipes!

From the side is definatley the worst.

This is n't too bad. I like the back on 45 degree angle look the best.

I swear to God this looks dark blue, this is the second time I am looking at nighthawk black thinking that its dark blue. Maybe I just have those "I want a blue CLS" illusions.

Right on Xephyr!!!

My opinion only--and I really don't want to ruin this beautiful post. But, for all of the styling praise the IS300 gets, IN MY OPINION ONLY, it is better looking from the side than the CL, but the CLS is better looking and more aggressive looking from EVERY OTHER ANGLE. Just look at these incredible pics--1 part class, one part barn-burner all packaged into one!! Damn, threads like this make me really love my car!!

Sweeeeeet looking rides everyone!!


Oh yeah--you kight see blue in the blask cars b/c there is an awful lot of blue metallic paint in the Nighthawk black. It never looks blue to me, but it is definately noticeable.
