Beautiful car and pictures! What camera do you use? Do you have any problems scraping the front end with that 2" drop? I'm thinking about getting some Eibach Pro-Kits since they have a 1" drop, but I'm concerned about tearing up my brand new front end.

I have an Intrax drop, my black plastic air dam scrapes every now and then. My front end still looks great thankfully so far. Just remeber the shocks you use are going to be everything. I'm saving up for a set of Koni's! I can't wait to get them. I think AirRide would be the best way to go. Its such a pain in the bootang to jack up and get up anything (driveways) steep. Just be eassssssssssy. Sideways always helps.

It's not about the camera. Any digi on the market today is very capable of making breathtaking images that can be enlarged WAY more than 35mm film ever dreamed of.
Nice pics! Nice car! Keep 'em coming!

A photographer goes to a dinner party at a neighbor's house. He brings a long a portfolio of pictures he has made over the past few weeks. The neighbor's wife exclaims, "Those pictures are the best I've ever seen! You must have a VERY good camera!!" After the meal, the photographer tells the neighbor's wife, "That was the best meal I've ever eaten! You must have some VERY good pots!!"

Not true. I bought a digi camera from Walmart for $80 and after the 2nd day of owning it I returned it and immediately went to Best Buy and got a $250 Fujifilm. 100x better

Yeah, definately not always true. I could tell those pictures were from a SLR. My Canon SD500 point and shoot is what I take all my pictures with, and it does take awesome pictures, but it, like almost all other P&S cameras, can't hold a candle to the quality and clarity of an SLR (which is why they're so damn expensive!). Photos are about 40% camera and 60% user in my experience. 60% to the user because they have to know how to use the camera right and, in terms of cars, find a good location, go at just the right time of day so the sun is where it needs to be, camera position, etc.

your car is absolutely gorgeous. It is also the only third gen that ive seen that could pull off 19/20's. Yea i know you've had the wheels for awhile now, but i really dont come on much more since i got to college.

depressing....I had the plans to take my car down south this weekend and get some good fall shots, but the past two days have been in the mid 30s here....flurries off and on, but most importantly tons of heavy wind - most of the trees are pretty much bare now....so I now go another year without any fall pics
