I remember a couple years ago driving through town one warm summer night. There was a dark colored C5 Vert in front of me. The exhaust was rumbling and the music was audible from the stereo. I said to myself " I gotta have one of those some day"

A nice dslr makes a huge difference. You can adjust the settings a lot more. I know my photographer uses a tripod at night too (allows you to use a slower shutter speed to capture light but any movement makes it blurry).

i used a point and shoot without the flash. 90% of the pictures turned out like crap but a few wound up being good with a few touch ups. my brother has been borrowing my dslr for far too long. and im not longer running with a front plate. some laws are just meant to be broken.

However, without flash camera shake is a major concern. Since my hands shake more than I would like, I use a tripod or other solid mount/surface, and then I used the self timer so the act of tripping the shutter doesn't shake the camera either.
now I have to go out and take some better pix of my car!
