My reading has led me to believe that these are GoGoGadget Transmissions......at least the roof comes off!!!

[dizzye36m3]

One of the best looking new cars out. Nice shots of it.

[Ripskin]

My friend had the non coupe version of the 08 model, nice car

A5/S5 are only coupes...I think u mean S4?

[imput1234]

cool shots!

[AeroSmith]

Thanks guys.

Slush box this is not. The car has a 7-speed dual clutch S-Tronic tranny with paddle shifters. There is no torque converter. Thus it is not considered an automatic. It is considered an automated manual. I guarantee this thing shifts faster than any professional could. It's by far the nicest gear box I've had a chance to play with.

From what I could read, it sounds like you can actually program it to your preferences. I'd probably just leave it the way it came out of the box and concentrate on the wind in my hair.:D

[Balliolman]

Lovely car and shots of it. :)

And it will adapt to your driving style as well.

No doubt about it though, this is all about the wind in your hair. I'm actually thinking it might make one heck of a mobile photography platform.

I can smell the leather from here.

Good idea shooting at f/2.8. Nice location for it, too, except for the... what's the word I'm looking for, guys? ;)

[4g63]

first one looks great!

[pennypue]

:lol:

:lol:

I guess I need to road trip through Cincy?

[pennypue]

I guess I need to road trip through Cincy?Well I hope you'd at least slow down or stop. Unless you've got some great handholds on that hood for me.:D

[AeroSmith]

Oh, I'd definitely stop for some of that Skyline Chili!

Here's another shot taken with the 85L.

[jubu]

Great shots...24-105 is sharp as hell...

...and excellent choice on the Val-1...although I found that it usually makes me drive faster...:p

Thank you. It had better be sharp at f/8! Actually, I do think I'm fortunate to have a very good copy of this lens.

The V1 has saved my butt many a time over the years.

[PhotosGuy]

Good idea shooting at f/2.8. Nice location for it, too, except for the... what's the word I'm looking for, guys? Tree! Except for the tree trunk growing out of it. It would be nice if you guys looked at everything in the frame & not just the subject?

[AeroSmith]

Another shot.
