I really think the colors in 96BlackSe second picture has what it takes for the calendar. The mirror like finish down the side of the car contrasted with the green of the leaves and the metallic street light poles. Even the lone figure sitting on the bench just adds so much interest to that picture.
PS. I think the calendar needs an equal balance of pre 98's along with the post 98's.

Scott, I don't think it was a crack at your pics. Your pics are very, very, very nice. I'm sure most CEGers would agree!

Well, I'd have better ones from Miami but 2 things keep me from that...A) I no longer live in Miami, I live in Orlando B) I currently don't have my car, it's still sitting in Miami with some issues.
Those are the best pics I have, I did take some night time pics, but because I didn't have a tripod, they came out blurry and what not.
So go suck rocks!

Thanks...I think they are a little dark for the most part (they are untouched but could be brightened up a little if necessary) but I was in a park with lots of trees. They could have been a little better with a tripod as well. I was pretty much just messing around with my camera while my son was having baseball practice. I'm no photographer that's for sure...just learning from others pic's. Once and a while I get lucky with a shot. I'm using a Nikon Coolpix 4300 in auto mode...but I did play with the flash on and off in some of the pic's.

Didn�t really think so...no biggy anyway I was just messing around and stirring the pot a little 
To be honest, I really don't think my car is all that special. There's probably 1/2 dozen or more nice silver SVT's with FSVT wheels and a few with the cowl hood and a couple with 13" Baer brakes. I have a Mirko in the garage but still lots of them as well. It's just real clean with a few goodies...but nothing really that different from many others on the board. Good luck to all, in all honesty I really don't expect to be in the calendar
