Lotus Elise photoshoot #1
 
I had VERY little time, but this is the first chance I've had to take out the new car and photograph it.

Other than telling me I need to go more places, and position the car more, let's hear the comments.

that is a beautiful car. im interested in seeing some (or lots) more interior pics. inside the glove compartments, the trunk, the dash, pedals, etc. everything.

im happy that the car is in the hands of a good driver

The interior is TINY, so it's tough to get any pictures. I'll work on it when the weather's nicer. But, you're in luck. Here's two more from the dealership.

Tons! A few pictures when driving it no the highway, too.

When I parked it in front of a restaurant to pick up dinner one night, so many people walked by. My fiance was in the car, and said most kids and most men loved in. In fact, most fathers with kids were telling them not to touch it because it was so expensive.

The best was one couple:
Man: Wow, I really like that. That's awesome!
Woman: That's the ugliest car I've ever seen in my entire life. Ugh

Poor guy, apparently she was the most miserable and stuck-up woman she's seen in a long time. And we live in a rich area where all the housewives stand out as stuck-up and completely un-fulfilled. If she stands out, it must have been bad lol.

Lol nice catch :)

T2i kits with a great lens aren't too much right now ($700 - $1000.) If you're really into photography, it's worth it.

Well, it's going to have to wait. I live in PA, we're about to get a ton of snow, and I don't have a garage. It's staying covered for a while now.
