Hey everyone, I just acquired a 2000 E430 Sport as my daily driver. I had a W211 E320 wagon two years ago and am now rejoining the club. Glad to be back!

Thanks everyone! I really didn't do any editing to the picture itself. The only edits were correcting lighting effects. The pictures came out so well a lot due to the time of day (sunset) and the camera/lenses I used. Plus I've done shots like this before with my other cars and have some minor experience.

Thanks guys! And yep, these photos were taking in Roanoke, VA off of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Really awesome place for photos. I did some shots of my Lexus back in the fall with the leaves and they came out great too.

Thanks haha. I do want to lower it just a tad but I'm not sure the best route to go for these cars. Any suggestions? I don't want to be slammed since my other car is lowered on coilovers and this is my daily.
