As far as I know all of these cars are real and were produced in a chrome finish for the annual calendar.

The car was chromed for this shot, but it must have been touched up on PS or another program to get such vivid colours

And the crazy part were the shipping costs since it's HUGE, but well worth, a collector item!

So you mean all of the cars have just been photoshopped on the calendar? I always thought that those were real cars produced as one-off editions :roll:

I'm pretty sure the official press release that went with it, never talked about PS and seriously, I'd like to know how they could obtain such result..
I still think the cars really have chromed surfaces... and if they really were PShopped, why still no original pics around?

I believe the actual picture is a painting...judging by the plants around it...but otherwise, i'd say they were PS'd

I think it's dangerous to drive a chrome car on the road, because its reflects the sunlight... 8)
