Good times. Joey and I washed our cars yesterday in anticipation of the Bob Wade event. Of course, as soon as the photo shoot was over, it rained. They looked good for at least 30 minutes, I promise Big Grin

Anyway, I have a fisheye lens out from The Breeze right now and I had some fun with these. Enjoy...

Yep. I wish it was the 10.5mm because of the DX crop factor. Beggars can't be choosers though, the gear is free to use.

Great photoshoot. I love those gunmetal rims on the yellow M3. Also loving the black Vader seats. May I ask what ASC PLZ means? Great shoot. The Miata looks good too. I just washed my car yesterday, and the forecast says torrential rain is coming to South Texas tomorrow. So.....I am taking the wife's car to work, while mine sits dry in the garage.

Slim, how has it held up with 146,000 miles on it? Have you had to do any major repairs to keep it on the road?

Starts and drives every mornin. Lots of weird little body creaks and rattles, and the passenger door likes to not unlock all the way.

All the important stuff is spot on, but yes its taken a lot of work. I've only had it for six months, but the guy that had it before me spent about $4500 on it in a year in preventative maintenance. Which works in my favor.
