Photos of my IS-F

taichimaster · 05-14-2008, 05:27 AM

Stunning pictures.....nice car!!

ngl1145 · 05-14-2008, 07:17 AM

Someone asked for a few interior shots. As for modding, I wish the front end was just slightly lower. They did a good job with the rear in terms of gap from wheel to body distance. Yes I'd love to make it faster eventually but overall I'm pretty happy.

I love that silver carbon... Saw it live a couple a months ago and it truly looks and feels amazing!

Nice car

the hood looks very strange in those pictures though

KL2DC · 05-14-2008, 09:13 AM

beautiful pictures! Thanks for sharing!

Did you consider the others before settling for the IS-F? Price aside why the IS-F over, say the C63 for e.g.? Curious...

SlammedR8 · 05-14-2008, 09:40 AM

I have a feeling it's my lens effect that's making the hood look even bigger than it is. I'll try to take some images with my 24-70 lens. Some of those pictures were taken with my 10-20 mm lens and the curvature in the glass may slightly distort the image. I love car photography no matter what make as long as it looks really interesting.

Thanks! What part of NJ are you from. I occasionally go down there for business. Would love to take photos of your M3. Other than at the dealership I've only seen one out on the road (parked).

That would be awesome! I'd love to have some professional pics taken of my car!!

I live in South Jersey, about 15 miles east of Philadelphia, near Mount Laurel (I bought my M3 at DeSimone BMW of Mount Laurel).

Outstanding pictures, thanks for the contribution. Congrats on the new car. I've got to ask though, as there is some speculation about this: Are the exhaust tips on the actual models connected, or is there still a gap? I've heard that the non-connected exhaust tips were only on the prototype.

Thanks.

The bulge on the M3 hood doesn't span the whole hood, so in some respect, yes it does look better.

Regardless, it may very well be the lens that's making it worse. It's still a great car, enjoy it!

Those HDR photos are amazing man. That 4th photo by the water is ridiculous.

What camera are you using?

par4bmw · 05-14-2008, 01:39 PM

Man, great photos. Love your work. Car looks great too. You will not get much love for Lexus here but it does drive well. Enjoy.

nmulax · 05-14-2008, 01:46 PM

I shoot with a Nikon D80. The 2 primary lenses I use is a 10-20 mm lens and a 24-70 f/2.8. The 10-20 mm lens is what makes the hood look larger than it really is.
