 My first new car = ) 2004 Honda Civic LX Coupe, Fiji Blue Pearl exterior w/spoiler
Purchased Wednesday Nov. 26.

I don't expect this one to do too well, it is a little bit of a "snapshot" but I like it just the same.

Thanks for the comments. I'm not sure I understand the lack of sharpness comments, it looks sharp to me. That said, this is pretty much the vote I expected. The grill is stock, actually.

For a college student with only a co-op (similar to an internship) for income, a new car is a big investment. The car is my "baby" ; ) So far I'm very happy with it.

I suppose you have captured a face of sorts. Not sure if it's a smile.

Only 48 months? You got more than I have. Great shot - nich and clear. Like the water drops on it.

I 'm not sure what to think about this shot. THe crop gives me a headache, th edges are blurry, there is no attention to symmetry.and I am immediately fighting off the distinct impression that this photo really really stinks. But it is a clever title, with a nice blue color and a sharp shot. I guess this shot is pretty pleasing really, I like the aftermarket webbed grill, and the fact that you managed to keep your self out of the reflection. It is my vote and I ultimately say... nice job.

No offense, but a Honda doesn't exactly scream "Money". Don't feel singled out though--I left the same comment on the Mazda Protege photo. :-)
