Default Some new hi res pics!

Weather was 80 degrees today so I decided to take her out for a cruise today. Found this neat little spot on the road and took about 300 pics Here are 10 of them. I decided to put smaller sizes in the thread due to the size of the real ones.

Hi res pics are here: http://s108.photobucket.com/albums/n.../New%20Folder/ feel free to take any you want.

I use all Meguiers stuff. Today I used the diamond cut, cleaner wax, then the hi tech polish, and topped it off with spray detailer before I took the pics.

Thanks! I use a Canon 40D with a combination of a 17-40mm f4.0L or a 24-105mm f4.0L. Other lenses in the inventory but that's the two I used today.

And about the mileage...if there is anyone more **** about their cars I want to meet them.
