New Car

After a long arduous week of haggling and a long long day of saying no to dealer add ons (nitrofill for $349!!!! I had to walk from that dealer). I have my new Fit. I wanted the vortex blue, but those are pretty rare and that was the one with the $1200 in BS add ons. Every car lot I've been to in the last month has had 4 colors, white, silver, grey, and black. There is nothing wrong with any of those but the total lack of color was depressing me. So Red it is. I always figured my first red car would be Italian. Oh well.

geez, two new guys, and they both know how to photograph cars.

Yours could be in the Honda brochure.

Thanks

Just an old Nikon d40. But the trick was to adjust the RAW file for color temp and a few other things, using the free program UFRaw. Those are sodium vapor lights so before adjustment the whole think looked as orange as a pumpkin.
