If I don't get the shots I want with the gear I have, the only optics I need to examine is the mirror on the bathroom wall. The root cause will be there.

Awesome, especially being backlit with a sun fairly low on the horizon.

what i did was take 3 bracketed photos and combined them with photomatix and slight adjustment on strength and saturation etc.

cheers!

Beautiful shots. Highly polished cars ar a **** to shoot but you've done a great job here. The first shot is a ripper.

thank you for your kind words. anyway a little trivia for friends here who know little about Singapore. the cars here are crazily priced. hah a brand new Volkswagen Golf mkVI GTI will set you back about 161k USD.

Strobes? Where did you see me recommend those for cars? ; ) Not that you can't get some good shots with them, but natural late light is much easier, & better looking IMO.

161k for a VW? That's crazy talk!

It muct be something in the air over there. A guy in Japan paid $3,000US for a watermelon?

BTW OP, you should probably photoshop the thread or whatever is lying on the ground in front of the car on the right.
