The background doesn't really work for me. It is also a bit busy. If there was only a road that went into the frame, with those beautiful hills in the background, then that would have looked better.

Gorgeous car, I don't think the background is ideal for a car and the second picture seems to be a little underexposed.

You have no light on the car (and it needs a wash job :oops:). You could fix it up in post, but
you'd do better to shoot it in better light conditions --- which does not mean open
sunlight at high noon!!

i like the background for the first one. it gives the impression that the pic was taken in old Germany. i just think the pic would benefit more by cutting out some of the sky and have a bit more blur. by adding blur the background will still be present but wont draw the eye as much. the reflection of light on the top of the car is good but the reflection on the side is a bit distracting and doesn't compliment the lines on the side.

+1 to having the car lit better.
