Apparently we have infinite overcast days here in Austin, at least since picking up the car on launch day. Anyway, here's a random shot in mixed lighting conditions that highlights the satin finish:



P.S. I normally wouldn't park under a tree but I was in a hurry and it was the closest spot to my actual destination.

Uh, corner spots are open behind you with no trees, you couldn't walk an extra 10 feet? LOL

But you get artsy style points now for adding the tree in the pic

First, love the pic. Second, I'm debating the tri stripe decal on my grill, but I'm just not sure on LBB. I think it looks really good on Mineral Grey (as well as AW and BSM) as it adds some color. With my car, I'm just not sure yet...

Borrowed my fathers camera to try a full frame camera. Worst idea ever!
My point and shoot is for sale now and a full frame camera is ordered.

Nice Canon colours.
The blur on the front was a good idea.

Of course, I checked the exif. But as a matter of fact, my experience is that Canon provides more "vivid" and "contrast" out of the box compared to Nikon.
Unless the shooter did some adjustments in LR.

Yes, Canon is known for that so I was impressed at first that you spotted that even if you "cheated".
