The camera used is a Sony Cybershot P71, some of the pictures are using nightmode to enhance the light. Feel free to post a friendly comment or straight out hate on my car .

That might be because the pics were resized and they were much bigger in the full resolution, so the same amount of pixels were crammed into a smaller pic size.

Thanks for the comments everyone,

Yeah I agree, they are grainy - this is because I used photobucket to upload the pics. The pics originally are about 500k, but photobuckets maximum is 250k per pic, so they automatically resize it for you when you upload.

yup, they're off a 5.5 gen Maxima, I really love the way it looks, but theyre so heavy .

Nice shots man! Car looks good, backgrounds are nice.



And for the record, reducing the resolution of a picture does not "cram the same amount of pixels into a smaller space" - the extra data (from the full set of pixels) is simply lost, not "crammed." If you keep the resolution the same but increase the jpeg compression, you'll wind up with a smaller file and again, less data since jpeg is a lossy compression algorithm. Different concepts, same result.

Very nice pics. Photobucket does mess up the pics. I would rather host at cardomain and get better result

Great pictures man. I just got my Olympus D-540 today and took a couple shots of my max. Pics were taken in the driveway, so they don’t even compare to the view you used. Hopefully in a couple of days I’ll be able to get better shots.

And how’s the climbing there? Looks like you can do some pretty good rock climbing (from the view in the last picture), or at least some decent rappelling.

I think the police would bother you if you attempted to do that there, although im not too sure, it sure would be fun as hell to rappel there though. The picture doesnt capture the whole rockwall, we couldnt walk back far enough to take the pic to include the whole thing while still including the car.

The 5th gen wheels look great on your car. I looked high and low for a set of those to put on my 3rd gen. I finally settled for a set of '04 Altima wheels. I'm happy with them. And that rock face in the last picture is amazing. Where was that taken?

I got the wheels off ebay for $400 without centercaps or tires. . . tires ran another $400 off ebay (Falken 235/45/17 ZE512s) - I think It may have been able to get my setup for cheaper off someone on the org.

The picture was actually taken 3 minutes away from the George Washington Bridge(GWB) the NJ side. That picture was taken down the same road that shows the GWB in the pic.
