Default CLK430, S55 kompressor, G35 magazine shoot (14 pics)

I was chosen along with two other guys to have our cars used for some photo's a couple model chicks were going to use in a photoshoot. I do not have the good photo's, only MY photo's I took. I also do not have permission to post their faces, so with the constraints in mind, here's the shots I took of the shoot.

I went first, the S55 went next, and right as I snapped the first shot of the S55 my CF card crapped out.

Errrr, no. 28 and 29. Good for them to keep some spirit in them. All these damn 16 yr olds on the hoods these days. I wouldn't let an old lady on my hood, she could break a hip . I didn't care how old they were, I wanted my car in the shoot. (besides they are younger than I am, that's game on )

Cool pics. I wouldn't let a silk wrapped angel with Angelina Jolie's mouth sit on my car like that, though.

No idea as of yet. Just happened a few hours ago. I will be notified when they release them.

Just out of curiosity, what qualifies a rather stock looking bunch of cars for a magazine shoot? Really, I dont see anything there that would make those cars stand out from the current models out. Unless the cars weren't the primary focus of the shoot. I don't get it...

It wasn't a car shoot, as indicated in the OP.

Maybe for some photogs, I grow tired of the open crotch type shots. To me that doesn't convey appeal but sleaziness.

I'll forward them your concerns over their moral fortitude.

hahaha, I was thinking the exact same thing. It's funny how we both figured they were really old even though their faces were censored

Nice car though

Your car looks great! Really clean! Although, I don't know if I'd let someone sit on the hood of my car.

Normally no, but if that means the car will appear in a magazine, especially a well known one, that's still rather tempting
