It's certainly a lovely looking car with true super car performance. We had spotted it on show a couple of days earlier in another part of Dubai but I only had my bridge camera at hand on that day, the car imust be showcasing in various locations around Dubai. The photo I have posted is in one of the most photogenic areas in Dubai with The Burj Khalifa (the worlds tallest tower) visible behind the towers of Dubai International Finance district & S.Z. Road.

I will try & post a few more photos soon :beer:

I suspect that you're describing the HDR processing effect. It can be overdone but this looks just right in my eyes.

Sorry not familiar with that HDR effect ?
I tend not to use effects on photos myself. Just as true to life as I can..
But after looking at some of the recent photos I've taken I'm wondering if my camera has used this effect ??
Gonna check my settings....

A few more photos of this beauty & not a quad exhaust in site . . . . :lol:








PS These are not processed using HDR technique, just standard RAW images processed in Adobe LightRoom then sharpened slightly in Photoshop, they may be a little over processed but that's my style :eusa-think:

My mistake. These don't look HDR but the first one did to my eyes. Great shots whatever and an absolute beast of a car. I'd love a shot!!

I was talking to a guy how new a lot about this car & he reckons it throws flames out of the top mounted exhausts when it's accelerating flat out . . . . :eek:

Unfortunately I never heard it start up never mind flying off into the sun-set . . . . Shame :cry:
