They look kinda dark and the roof in #2 is cutoff. I like the E30 shot the best.

Yeah I think white balancing work will make them look cleaner.

Thanks for the input guys!

Ever since I've been shooting(which hasnt been long) I've struggled with WB. To me, the white balance looks pretty good. I don't have a technical reason to believe the WB is correct, just the fact that I know how the cars look and felt like the colors were pretty accurate..

If anyone feels kind enough to re-edit them with the white balance fixed, I'd appreciate it!

much better. there is still a tiny yellow cast that I'd get rid of, but these are much cleaner.
