the carpr0nz thread

this is NOT the place to post cool cars...theres a thread for that already http://www.6thgenaccord.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24061

here is a thread to post awesome pics that are as much about the cars as the background, situation, angle, lighting, etc. epic pics!

no cell phone pics, no dudes sweeping the floor behind the car, no snapshots, no pics that aren't desktop quality!

classic euro cars preferred

help me fill my car pron folder. jalopnik has these once in a while but i need more (and they link to tumblr...no easy right click, save as...)

here, i'll start...

current desktop...

had this one a couple weeks ago...

Classic means something different to each generation, so you may want to specify a decade(s). I'd say 50's - 70's.

Subscribed. Time to start digging up some of my old photos of 250 GTO's, 275 GTB's, E-types...the list goes on.

btw, what's a "pron" folder?

i'm sick of seeing all the HDR, cranked-contrast, vignetted pics of today...the shots that are decent but processed to hell and back to try and make them epic.

i, personally, love old euros and have a porsche fetish, but it doesn't really matter what anyone posts...it has to be an awesome picture no matter what car is in the shot. one-in-a-million shots, stuff that you couldn't replicate today, etc.

a pron folder is usually titled "bible study" or "cool pics" or something similar :lawl:

i confused on the difference between hot shizz and pron?

ryan s · Oct 22, 2010

look at the quality of the "hot shizz" pics...some are cars sitting in garages with half the body missing...some have fat guys waxing the car while the pic is being taken...some are so HDR i'd rather poke my eyes out than look at it...some are at car shows with dodge neons in the background...etc.

this is more heavily focusing on the photography and environment and quality of the pics. epic pics you can't just walk out and take with your phone.

how about some mercedes evo II DTM?

(probably a bigger one out there...)

general DTM
