I shoot with a Nikon D80. If this was a real photoshoot, I'd make sure that the light pole wasn't reflecting off of his hood along with anything else that you see in the background. But for just capturing what I saw, it was taken with a Nikon D80 with a Sigma 10-20 mm lens.

Here are some of my other work if you're interested in looking

were you using a polarising filter there, or have you HDR'd the photo, or pshopped the colours?

The shots are nice btw though. Well done.

I did this really quick. I was about to park and saw the car. About a minute and a half after I finished the owner came out, hopped in the car, then drove away. Despite the car being badged incorrectly, the car itself was clean and the sky was clear. If I take photos, I like to take them from a nice angle even if they are quick. It wasn't like a photoshoot or anything

I appreciate the compliments though !!

If he wasn't with his family, I would have asked him about his car. I was just putting my camera gear back into the trunk when I saw him walking towards the car. One of these days I'll photograph a new M3. I saw a nice black 335i coupe in the garage that I was contemplating photographing but was too lazy to.

It so damn easy to spot a Real from a fake model. putting the AMG badge is ok if you got a standard model with AMG rims or so, but putting C63 badge of the back and the 6.3 labels on the sides is going way too far.

umm..you know how many bmw wannabes are out there..more than merc..we have seen jetta's honda,s hell even nissans with m and/or bmw roundels. i have seen more than 5-6 cars personally that aren't bmw's with bmw badges or aren't m3's with m3 badges.. why would people buy a bmw if all these people just stick a roundel on there jetta like the one a few days ago on here..it's all over now i am selling my bmw i guess

do you think i care about a badge? hell in europe most bmw's and mercs are debadged. and there are a ton of posers over there..A TON.. there are tons of pics of non bmw's in europe with roundels all over them..take it as a compliment they want to have one. hell i have seen a ferrari badge on a fricken fiero. so should i not want to buy a ferrari.. are you 16..why the hell am i even commenting your obviously too young to understand if your asking "why do people buy amg's if other people buy a cheaper one and rebagde it amg?" hello cause they are AWESOME.

you really think there is no point in owning an amg b/c people can just rebadge it then you might want to run away from bmw too.. and if you care so much about other people thinking that you are really driving an AMG or upper end merc or an M or upper end BMW you seriously need to rethink your priorities!!! and maybe look to increase size in other areas if you are that insecure.

please tell me you were just joking..i mean with a name like bmwprince i would think not..

Would have made it one step easier on the re-badging job if it were, from the 230: replace the 2 with a 6, keep the 3, and remove the 0. But AFAIK the US does not offer them lower than a C300.

I saw a Bentley GT with Hyundai badges in it in Santa Monica a few months ago. I wish I would have had a camera on me because it was great.

The pre-2005 CLK55s had dual exhaust from the factory - it might've been a real one.

I've seen worse... Came across a CLK320/430 double-parked right infront of a "Fire zone, no parking" sign that was (other than the AMG badges) bone stock, with at least 3 different brands of tires and one of them at the rear was mounted in reverse.
