Pics look decent, have him not go quite so crazy on the contrast next time he is editing. Also the P-mode works pretty nice for taking pics then learning what everything does while you are shooting

Hate to be the first one to say it, but the only photo that looks halfway decent is the black-n-white one, ...

Not a hater, just don't care for the shots.
Tell him to stop 'trying to be artistic' & just shoot the car.

Excuse me?!?
You referring to my comment about not liking the photos?
You may wanna read again. I didn't say I was a hater on the car.
I said I didn't like the 'artistic photoshopped' pictures.

How do you know what kind of 'set' I have anyway?
And speak in full english sentences so we can understand.
The first part of your comment is easy to get, but, the second part needs clarification.

Car looks pretty clean. I feel like the pictures are out of focus.
What time of day were these shots taken?

The grainy appearance was due to shooting at a too high ISO. Also the post processing was horrible all around, cranking the contrast and saturation to the point it hurts too look at it.

Guy need to study more about exposure and composition. Tell him to lurk here:

Nice car, agree with the need of a drop though.

Well I'll let him know that he sucks lol.... And I know it needs a drop..........but forced induction is very expensive... I've only had the car a year and I bought it stock. So I've done everything to it in the past 12 months. Just didnt have the budget for suspension until now. It'll have a 9" and suspension in the next 2 months as previously mentioned. Thanks for the compliments......
