Just spent the last 2 hours washing and waxing... just made it in time. Sun was nearly gone. First time I've shot a car before. Kinda fun actually.

Car looks very nice. Maybe check around for a better location, next time. :)

OK, you "spent the last 2 hours washing and waxing", & then made the car so small that you might as well have left it dirty? ; )
White cars are tough to "light", but "Sun was nearly gone." is the best time to shoot IMO, but the light on the horizon needs to be used to highlight the contours of the body, like MHO's shot: Photochoped Audi S5

Look at the Black/Red/white car links here in the "Tips" thread: Post #52:

the car looks nice...

but yeag, the location could be better.

Could do without the vignette and the yellow lines on the ground in the 2nd picture... and maybe some clouds would have helped.

But the car looks clean and well shot.
