Hey Mate! I have that exact lense and a variety of other entry-mid level Canon lenses. I regularly read about lens distortion, especially on the lenses I have. I don’t see it (in this picture or my own). Would you be willing to point out where the distortion is? I am trying to learn, and I love take pictures of cars…
That should buff out... :(
The BMW 2 series!
So hard to justify spending money on someone elses project. CP.
5th Gear: How can a camera see around a corner? Does it stick out?
NICE, I like the split spoiler looking thing. Maybe because we don’t see it everyday. It looks good!
The angled exhaust looks surprisingly good. Again, as with other parts of the car, the dimension look right and well fitted.
I don’t know if there is an official way to say this, but the wheelsize to back end ratio is perfect on this. The icing is the way the wheel fits into the wheelwell and the well fitted gap.
I... I kind of want to lease one...
HmmmmmMMmmmmm... I don’t know about this one. I agree that 45 MPH is low and there are some places where I feel like I should be allowed to hit 55-65MPH. However, the parkway doesn’t seem to be designed to handle higher speeds. There are a ton of blind corners, virtually no gaurd rails, poor visibility at night,…
To tack onto what others have said, they also have to keep moving to avoid burning up. This exercise trains them to trust their PPE and keep moving (not panic).
That is a huge piece of glass!
That explains why I see this around Charlotte all the time! I thought it was just a lazy method of lowering a truck, something to do with the type of suspension that meant the rear bottomed out. I had no idea that this was a “thing”.
Second-ed, the stick on is the final nail in the coffin.
What was the creative use of beer crates? Google only returned a bunch of articles about germans drinking...
And one more: A gauge that calls out speed traps. How I imagine this would work (analog of course) is the needle would point towards an upcoming police car while a dial would count down distance. Since it would be analog, the dial would always be pointing to a police car, so it could be pointing behind you if the…
Oh I’ve got another one: A gauge that shows you alignment to parking spaces. Kind of like those gauges in airplanes that help you align with the horizon, this one would show your cars orientation with parking lines. You’ll never be parked crooked again, and always in the center of the spot, equidistant from both cars…
A gauge that points to the cheapest gas in the area so you aren’t simply giving in to the “exit gas station” and finding that station about a quarter mile in that is about a dime cheaper.
The Pontiac Sunbird. My first car. An updated/leftover of the malaise era. The car always seemed out of breath and reluctant to do the very thing it was supposed to do: move forward. The whole car was cramped with the engine bay being simply offensive by taunting you: “Oh you have knuckles, let me take care of that…
If it had more power and ground clearance I could see this being fun and useful. As it stands, it’s probably best used as a prop or quirky prom ride.
