Great photos as usual Sasso.
I'm must waiting for some $$$ and I'll invest on a digital SLR.
I'm really keen to try HDR photography.

Nice shots 
I'm a bit of a photographer and will be taking some photos of this car too with my D200, probably the same lens. Looks like you used a 50mm 1.8, and something else for the wider shots - out of interest why did you chose f8? Do you find it sharpest there? Most lenses are at their sharpest 2 stops down, on most zooms or primes this still means more like f5 that wide.

Was only curious, as I rarely use high appetures and probably should. Love the 50mm 1.8, it's so sharp at like 3.2! Having said that, I rarely use these days it as I have an 18-200 VR and love the convenience and wide angle, even though the bokkeh sucks. My D50's 18-55 non-VR was pretty rubbish compared to the 50mm 1.8.
They really are nice shots, I haven't really taken many car photos before (but will have an excuse to soon... ;) )

Yup an NB8A doesn't look much sexier than that!

No I'm not, sometimes you need wide-angle and if I'm taking one lens travelling I'll take the 18-200. Your certainly can't beat the 50 for sharpest and bokeh.

Wonder if Richard convinced me that the coilovers were "too stiff for street, and too soft for track" so he could sell them to you? 
Nar, the tien spring rates are too high for such a light car on the street IMO anyway.
