This is tough ...
how can you take a picture that creates new car smell illusion?
;)
 
Man this is a tough one, Its going to take me a couple days most likely.
I'm going to look through every car dealership, looking for the most unique car to photo. And then it going to take couple of days to get the perfect shot of that car, testing every track to find the best location and angle. Wow, this one is probably the hardest one ever. I cant even start to imagine the kind of shots were going to get. People like danger orange, 440, franz and treefingers come to mind. What a great theme, so much possibilities. Man! this one is going to pull out some of the best looking shots ever.


(BTW, were is the poll for the last one?)
 
I think I just might take a shot at this for this week's theme, though with my apparent curse of 3rd places in the regular PMC, I don't see what shot I have with this one ;).

I like the theme choice TF, I'm going to have to put some thought into it 👍

You dont have to try to create a new car smell illusion. I just thought i would give it a catchy name.
PERFECT BALANCE
(BTW, were is the poll for the last one?)
The poll will be up when i get a top ten for it.

Wouldn't it be 35,000,000 for the japenese version?
I thought it was right, but im not positive. Could someone with japanese version verify that?


Im glad you guys like the theme.
 
What about us Europeans? Is it €35.000 for us aswell or should we use the equivalent of $35.000 wich is roughly €30.000?
 
I don't know about that but I think we are going to see lots of japanese cars. I mean, they are waaay too cheap in GT4 compared to europeans. A Z is cheaper than a VW Bora? Gimme a break! :irked:
 
I think this theme kicks butt! I have 35,000 to spend and need to find a good car. Power; yes. style; yes. what to buy?

I think I will be using my 350 Z once more! HaHa! I think it's under $35K, is it not?

And DO, your entry looks really nice, but I have no idea what that car is! What is it?
 
Looks like an MG TF (a good one, I might add) 👍

Franz, are the prices between the different versions different? The Z4 is nearly 100K in my NTSC-CA game :(.

Convertibles are getting all the love, it seems! ;)

A Honda S-2000 '04 (not the type v) is exactly $35,000 in the american version. How much is it in the eurooean version? You can probably just use that amount for your maximum.




Franz, i think your car is too expensive.

It's Cr.35,000 so i guess the prices are the same for the US and European versions.

Thanks.
 
I figured that the first thing you do when buying a new car is go and show it off where everyone will see it. I'm a photoshop noob (elements) so advice is good.

edit: im off to follow some tutorials
