    Niiiiiiiicccccceeeeeeeee! :)

    I wish that red was available in Australia. Cannot complain about the blue that I got (Called Crystal Blue in the Australian paint scheme) but I may have had a hard time not going for a good red like yours!

    Those are some great pictures.
    Very well set up and captured.

    Thanks, the red was our second choice (because black is so hard to come by) but I'm glad we got red. We've never had a red car before, and this one is just too darn cute.

    Tony, we planned out the pics ahead of time and spent a Sunday morning (early) taking pics of the car at several tourist spots in LA- The Disney concert hall, MOCA, Staples Center, and the Coliseum. Last place was in front of Canter's deli, right before we stopped for breakfast.

    We've never spent that much time taking pictures of anything before that wasn't a child or a vacation destination. I'm sure the developers at the Costco photo center think we're certifiable.

    They may be beautiful pictures, but he needs a little work on the parking technique in the second photo. :D

    Those are some really nicely composed photos, and I love the warmth of the early morning light combined with the really smokin' hot red! Well done.

    Maybe they were just showing how big the wheels are using the parking lines as points of reference. As you can see, the tyre diameter is exactly the length of half the line (from the intersection to the tip) lol.

    No, I pulled the car up purposely so we could get the sign in the pic too. It's the contemporary art museum, just down the street from the Disney hall. It was at like 7 a.m. on a Sunday morning, so the only other people out were the street people...I' sure they thought we were nutters.
