Took this photo at the 2012 NAIAS, but was unable to process it at the time, either due to my lack of experience or because LR4 is just that much better than LR3, but I think it was a little of both.

Everyone took great pics but I really love this because I've had situations like this and couldn't capture it. Well done Rick.

Not a big fan of that color, but that's probably a familiar angle from most cars trying to follow it

The wheels and exhaust need a bit of cleaning - but hell, what a car.

For a second there, I thought it was one of those rubber arms that attaches to dealer plates so the trunk could be closed on it.

But, not so sure.

Lol, thank you.

It seems sometimes like most people here have an actual camera on them or have a phone that does pictures better than my iPhone does.

MEKO, based off of the license plate, I would assume that red thing is a 1948 Chevy

Spotted this sexy one last night at the gym. I love those exhaust tips! Too bad it was automatic, though.

that's actually a really bad picture taken with my Sony NEX-5N. I had just left a restaurant with friends, and was demo-ing to them how the camera does in high ISOs like 25600 or 12800 (in the low lighting surrounding of the restaurant) I forgot to put it back to auto ISO and when we were done eating, I saw that Maserati outside, I just did a quick snap, but didn't realize about the high ISO. You can see how "muddy" it looks on the guy's face, standing on the other side of the car

All it needs is the stripe & it would be 100% perfect. For now, it is still 95%.

Seriously, behind the F50, I think a TDF 360 CS is my 2nd personal favorite Ferrari.

It's a nice ride but IMHO the design looks dated. Performance and handling are superlative but I can't even have a conversation with the driver the ride is so harsh. It's impressive how well CS have retained their values, Ferrari sold too many Scuds that's why their prices tanked. Supply and demand i.e. 16M.
