Very pretty car. What color red is that, is that original color? I'm thinking of painting mine red and I like that shade, is it a Corvette color or a custom?

Nice 77. That looks almost like the orange on the car in the sales brochure.

I have both the 20D and 5D and love them. I second the above mentioned site. Been a member since I bought my 20D. Be warned, cameras are an expensive hobby.

Car looks great. I think that was the perfect light to really bring out the color. I'm no photography expert at all, but I've always heard that dusk (or in your case a cloudy day) really brings out the details in a car.
