Thumbs up

pay a little bit closer attention.... the TL is a mirror image. Easily given away by the shadows, but closer inspection will show the driver on the right hand side of the car. Unless it's a JDM Inspire, that's highly unlikley. I have to agree, the image is done very well, and at a glance will fool most people.....

Best wishes
George

you can also tell it's a fake pic b/c both cars are breaking to their left... so in such case they are so close together that afturing "turning", they'll colide in the RIGHT REAR... by the fender/light....
no keen eyes here, just some thought put into it...

The smoke is real (courtesey of our fine micheline and pirelli tires).

silver96tl:

The reason it looks like the driver of the TL(me) is on the other side, is this: you try taking that turn at 40mph and see how u end up leaning

but actually, how's this for an idea: we can have a forum/gallery for just photoshopped stuff of tl/cl's. What do you guys think about that?

Cool

Taking a closer look, You do have a point.... The thing that i guess is decieving is the tint. The passenger headrest looks awfuly like a face unless you pay closer attention, especially in the high res version. The other thing that seemed to point me in the direction of the mirror image, is although the EZ pass is clearly visible, you cant see the wheel, or the rise in the dash for the instrument cluster. They were also taken with the sun at different angles, but.. Thinking about it, the body roll would look wrong if the image were mirrored. So i guess it proves a point, of it's amazing what photoshop can do.
