Went on a roadtrip to pick up a 997 S with my buddy *pics*

I recently talked my buddy into getting a new car for the summer and it didn't take long be fore we found a smoking deal on an arctic "S" with PCCB's.
We flew down to the south of Sweden to pick it up this thursday.


Cabride from the airport to the guy who sold it..


The seller showing him the car


Filling her up for the first time..


Didn't take long before we got stopped by the cops (they had gotten reports of a silver Porsche driving over the speedlimit but when they got onto us we drove @ the speed limit so they couldn't do anything)


Stopped to pee

The driver's side door look's as if it is a different shade in some of the pics, maybe it's just the lighting although it appears off even under some of the different light settings in the pics; could it have been re-painted? (sorry).

Beauitful photography work...how did you fix the lighting so well? Some photoshop tricks? Great work and use of your artist mind and working the camera.
I have a Canon 20D and some nice lenses but can not quite come close to your work plus my PS skill stink!
thanks again, Mike

Ok this equipment question has been asked more then 50 times. As far as I remember, Felix is using a Digital Rebel XT (aka 350D) with standard kitlens 18-55mm. Correct me if I'm wrong
