Long exposure. Small aperture. I'm guessing the exposure's 1/30th or 1/10th of a sec. Aperture was set at 11-19. ISO should be about 200-400.

You need a tripod to keep the car in focus.

hey, I'd just settle for any car right now, since mine is several states away. Hm, no girl, no car... depressing

Interesting list though and that photo of the elise is sweet

That's a longer exposure than 1/30th, it's at least 1 second if not 2. So then an aperture of about an f19 probably. As evoWALO said, ISO about 200-400. Another cool effect is to use about 1/3rd of a sec exposure and zoom in on the subject as you release the shutter, then you get a circular blur around the subject, looks ace!
