Great photo's fredej, they all look great - what camera did you use?
BTW Do you only drive it after a full wash-n-wax!? :)

Thanks, Vijay! :)
I mostly use a Canon M50 with kit lens. Recently I’ve bought a Sigma 30mm f1.4 lens to play around with.

Silver grey is great for hiding the dirt. :P
It also helps that it’s a weekend car and that it’s put in storage during the winter months.

Thanks Mikey! :)
Sweden can be really beautiful.
Right now it's winter. In the part of Sweden where I live, that means that most days are dark, grey and rainy.
I'm really looking forward to spring when it's time to take the Z4 out of storage again!

Thank you for your kind words, Kay! :)
Cars and photography are interests that goes very well together.
It's can be difficult to find good photo locations. I feel like I too often end up at the same location as previously. However, sometimes it can be interesting to capture changes of the scenery due to seasons.

I really like how the soft light and the sliver grey paint show the lines and surfaces of the Z4 in these photos.

I agree the curvature of the body panels, together with the lighting and shadowing really accentuate the beauty of the design. Great pictures again :thumbsup:

Thanks both of you! :)
Style 202 seems to be relative rare. It's a bit of an odd design, but I think it works well with the Z4.
