Very classy. I like the black and white with the Mercedes. Also the locations for the shot's add a ton to the concept. Did you think this out before you did it or did you take the photo's and then decide they would look great B&W in post?

I like #2. Too much shadow on the visible side of the car in #1, just loses detail.

The owner liked a few pictures I did before of his car in b&w . the locations were just use driving around.

I really like 2 & 3, the first is a little harsh with the contrast of the sky but still a nice shot. It may just be the upload process, but I'm seeing some grain that would be easily eliminated in LR.

Good work!

2 and 3 for me also, I agree the locations really add a lot to the overall shots, nicely done..

#2 is good. But if you can shoot the car moving in #2 location is even better.

I'm not a fan of car photos that have a background that competes for attention with the car.

I suggest using selective focus (shallow DoF for a blurred background), and/or use a background that is very plain so it does not compete with the car for a viewer's attention.
