mine looks blurry as in the car had started moving from that station before the photo went off. i dont know if i can be bothered chasing them up for a larger file, i found it strange they could not email them (3mb + 3mb is well within email limits) maybe they did it on purpose to provide the lower res versions.. anyway, heres mine

I like everyone's posts of the pics of their car's production vehicle, etc and how much trouble they are trying to get them. I had no inclination to get mine when I first saw one, but was thinking more and more that I may try and get mine. I also notice that everyone is having some sort of trouble trying to obtain them, and the photos have been a bit blurry. I like these pics as it will look the same as my car, so don't mind if I copy and paste if I can't get my pics. It may look exactly the same :rolleyes:

Lol, but you will always know that it isn't really your car, so that makes it a bit pointless.

Congrats mrjasonhong enjoy your time giving it heaps. Sorry "running it in" what colour is the strip on the back? Chrome or black?
Love the 20's. Well done.
G'day mate, baby steps for running it in HAHAHAHAH. If you mean the strip on the tailgate, it's chrome. Which I don't actually mind to be honest

Let me point out something about photos. They are probably not using the highest quality cameras, like a Canon 1D or 5D. The depth of field is quite short (aperture is open wide) so the foreground and background may be out of focus and the middle bits will be in focus. They may have it on auto focus and it may focus on something that is not the front of the car. Or they may have it on manual focus to make the pics a little burry on purpose. So it brief, you're not going to get a spectacular studio shot of your car in production. Yes, I know, you can take better shots with your iPhone or Android phone...

Love the pic! Congrats! I also like the black bonnet protector on your car, as it looks good with the SOAG, but probably not on any other colour. A big step up from a Suzuki Swift - you may notice a little bit more power. I would like to see more pics.. later maybe.. :)

Thanks heaps mate. The black bonnet protector was actually a suggestion from the dealer as I initially optioned a clear one. Right before delivery he rang me and basically convinced me to change to black and thank god I did :D Going from say 40-70 in the swift required a bit of pedal movement. With a V8 however just a gentle nudge and you're there already AHHAHAHA loving it. As for photos they will definitely be more as I a quite a photography nut. The photo I posted was actually taken on an iPhone 7 Plus with slight processing in VSCO cam app.

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but how do you guys know the pics are of your particular cars ?

I quoted a very similar thing! I think all of those LMF cars are mine, and I'm not getting my car until end of May. Just recycle the pics..
