Default "California Concepts" Ford Mustang and Bently GT

So my boss and I took his new ride out to Pebble Beach to do a photo shoot with his car. It didnt stop raining the whole time but I still got some decent shots.



On the way home I saw a Brown Maserati Quattroporte and a Black Bently Continental GT and I was so upset I didnt have my camera ready.......only in California...as we got closer to home I got a second chance with this white Continental GT

Good pics! Rain didn't ruin them, it actually made them look cooler since it's quite common to see sunny pics from California

Haha not in Pebble Beach, the Monterey area always has overcast lol But I do agree that the rain did make the pictures look cooler.

f-ugly white conti gt :roll:

The 'Stang looks awesome 8)
Its a really good looking car IMO, but it needs the beefing up of the stock wheels and maybe a body kit to get the full muscle-car thing going on

really nice pics of the car too - as TT said, nice to see a few "rainy" pictures from california.

Thanks :good:

Great looking photoshoot if you ask me. The rain just made it look better.

Stunning pictures, the close up from the boot is my favorite.

thx for the superb pics. The Mustang looks very nice in white with those two blue lines across it!! The thing I don't like are the wheels, to pimp-like. Dark grey wheels would have been cool!

You dont think the B&W version of that pic looks better? Anyway SVAG just got their first V8 Vantage. It says "Sold" on the page but sometimes the car will stay at the dealership for a few days, maybe I can catch it. http://www.siliconvalleyautogroup.co...hoto_page.html
