So, last week, two buddies and I decided to wash our cars. Well, We did the two STi's (Limited and WRB), then my TL. As I was finishing up my TL, a few more friends showed up....OK, washed their cars as well, a 2G TL and a 99 Prelude. Well, even more showed up, including one guys brother with the GTO, and another STi owner....

After finishing the GTO, we decided to call it quits and go out to dinner.

Then, last weekend we were all out for a nice drive and decided to stop at one guy's golf club to hit some balls on the driving range at 1AM, and while they did that, I took all their keys and decided now would be as good a time as any to take some pictures. Some of the same guys, some of the others.

The one car missing that I really wanted to shoot was another friends CSL55 AMG Wow is that car ever fast. I do have a few pics of it though somehwere.....

Anyways, enough talk, onto the pics.....

The wash day....






















And the 1AM photoshoot at the golf course....

The guy who drives the FX35 also has an SL500......



















Hope you enjoyed the pics. Any questions on the cars, let me know. I've driven all of them!

 

Nice pics!

I have a question: You said you took their keys right? So, does that mean you did all of that parking and arranging by yourself? If so...damn!

 

Yes Sir!

I'm a freak when it comes to stuff like that. Photoshoots are all in the set-up. I did have one guy help me with two of the cars though....he's not a golfer either!

 

Nice!

Driving ranges are like the perfect spot for photoshoots, but I'd never thought of that before. Thanks for the idea, and great looking cars there.

I'm a little partial to the TL, though.

 

No problem!!

I'm a bit partial too, but I wouldnt mind having a CLS 55 either.....

 

Yeah, go back and get that guy's car and take pics with it! I fucking love that car!!! In black of course, with some nice ass chrome wheels!!! Damn, now that is friggin hotttttttt!!!!!!!!!

 

thats exactly what it is too.... Black with the Chrome AMG wheels......stupid fast too....

 

dang man looks like fun... i wish my friends had nice cars... the only decent car is my buddies (dads leased) G6... weak!

 

niiiice. what camera are you using?

 

Pretty dope shots.

 

Thanks guys!

Camera is a Canon Digital Rebel XT. Photoshop is just resize and some level adjustment in the night shots to clean them up a bit.

 

That makes me smile becuz I am thinking about buying that exact camera! I will be PM'ing you for tips if I do Johnny-boy!!

 

nice pics, good array of cars

 

The Rebels are great cameras!

 

Is that BMW a M5 or something else?

 

Thanks guys!!

The BMW is a 535I 5-speed (very rare) with M5 suspension, body moldings, and a custom front air dam with functional brake ducts and custom speedline wheels a la Ferrari F-40. It was previously owned by a current BMW Driving School Instructor who purchased a euro-spec 95 M5 to replace it. My buddy got a screamin deal on the car and the pictures dont do it justice for how clean it really is.

 

thats funny, the title state: this is how we ROLL...but all i see is park cars..lol

 

Tell the FX next time that this isnt a truck show.....talk about looking out of place!

 

hes an admirer ....

its like when a little kid asks to be in a picture with a famous movie star... that star hardly cares about the kid, but is there so the kid looks cool and feels good...

trust me, i have people trying to take pictures with me all the time - they want to be able to tell their friends they had the opportunity to meet me... just gotta go with the flow.

lol

 

haha.....yeah, oh well. He also has a 98 SL500 but he didnt have it out that night unfortunately.

The FX can hold it's own pretty well though. You'd be surprised at how that thing can move!

 

^ Great pictures johnny.... How are you Rotora's + Hawks holding up?

 

rotora's are doing great. only putting out about 1/4 the dust that the brembo's did which is a life saver for me.......

 

i wish i still had my 99 sh lude.

 

ludes are great. almost bought one before I had my S2000......

 

On the 3G TL... those TSW's ???

 

Nope, they are the ASA ST4's, similar to the TSW's though, almost identical in fact.

 

kudos bro for all that work

 

haha....thanks!

 

Talk about a well-lit parking lot!

 

It's all in the exposure and aperture settings. A dark dark place can look very well lit with the right settings!

 

Awesome rides and very clean looking photography. Must've been lotsa fun parking and re-parking all those cars though. Great work!

 

haha....it's not too bad. I got used to it working at so many dealerships when I was younger doing detailing and being a lot bitc#!

Thanks though!

 

That is an awesome pic! The lighting and clarity is excellent! That background sky is what helps make this shot.

 

Man...i've been trying to get all my friends together for a shoot....i should just say theres a party somewhere...they'll all show up lol

 

Thanks!!

That is one of my favorites as well.

JJ, I cant tell you how hard it was to get everyone together. The sad part is that's only about half of the group. Still missing a fully built camaro, completely custom F150 lightning bagged on 22's, the CLS55 AMG, and a handful of other cars. All in all we have a group of about 25-30 cars that are not complete pile's or ricer boy civics and tiburons....haha....

 

The STI isn't that hard of a car to wash.
It's just a pain in the ass when I have to get between those spokes of the BBS rims.

I tend to like to keep my STI spoiler nice and shiny all around. Cleaning those spots under the wing.


This is my other car

 

yeah, it's an easy car to clean save for the wheels.....I have helped him many a time just with the wheels while he does the car......

 

Hahaha, cleaning the wheels is the only reason why I powercoated mine.
Now I can save time cleaning them! Cuz you can't even see the break dusts.

 

Out of ALL those cars, I like your wheels the best johnny--2k

 

Thanks JD.

Now they are going bye-bye asap since I bent two of them. They still hold air and balance out fine, but I just want something different. Selling the wheels without tires.
