Hi guys,

I think my 530 looks the best when shot straight from the side.See the antenna nicely blended with the rear and also those striking side lines !! Please have ur views posted with pics to prove the same.

Best angle of the e60 is the rear. Just ask Mercedes, Audi, Lexus, and Infiniti.

I think Vegastrashed E60 is pointed at a nice angle.

I think the car looks better from an elevated position, especially from the side like your first shot. I took this one of my car - I'm a good 10 or 12 feet above it I think. The 3/4 rear shot is my favorite.







Here is one I haven't posted here before... I was playing around, desaturating it a bit. Let me know what you think.

Looks great from the side.

jay - Why don't you tint your front windows too. IMHO that would make the car look much better. My Alpine white is tinted 45% all the way around....not as dark as your rear windows.
