Well after 2 years and 49,000 miles of ownership I figured it was time to post some pics of sparky. I hope you guys like him. I do. Here are some before and after pics.

I fixed your image tags so they read correctly. /img vs. img

I think the first photo is the strongest. Be careful to watch for things "growing" out of the top of the car (lampposts, pillars, signs, etc.).

 

Thanks. For both fixing the link. and for the comment. I knew I was doing something wrong.

 

Your first and second photos were IMO taken from a better perspective (particularly the first).

The first and third photos were pretty clearly taken in the middle of the day and that harsh light is hard to get good results with.
That said, the lighting in the second looks more like the tail end of the golden hour where you get better colors to come out.

Looking at all four together, you might want to try playing with getting the car out of the center of the frame (I'm bad at this myself ). If you're camera has a good zoom capability I would try backing up and then zooming in to help isolate the car some. Also, there are more tips in this post.
