nice job. im always impressed by how new your car looks. you must never drive it. or you have to teach me your car-care ways.

the pics are good, but your angles are too steep. tone it back a bit. if you shifted both pics by about 15 degrees (though in opposite directions) they would be really nice.

Can total see it's a PS job. What you need to do is erase the extended blur of the car before you flatten the layers.

Good advice, also don't forget to blur the trees that you can see through the windows.
