Nice angle, though what jumps out at me is fried eggs, rims and numberplate (fried eggs are the indicators btw - when you put on clear ones but use normal orange bulbs instead of the silver ones you can get especially for them). If you blacked out the lights, wheels and numberplate I'm afraid the rest of the car would disappear (unless that's just my laptop screen)
It's an E36 3 series isn't it (I'm on here as well)

Just too dark for me I'm afraid. Would have liked to see some subtle lighting on the car.

Forgive me for what follows. I thought that you should hear another point of view from the usual 'great shot' tripe.
There are lots of problems for me. First about two thirds of the photo is featureless, out of focus, wasted foreground.
Secondly the car itself is lost in the background. It needs some lighting to define the shape and lift it out of the shadows.
Third. On my monitor the bright areas are burnt out with no detail.
Sorry for all that but IM (Very) HO it's fit for the bin.
Finally let me apologise again. I know that I've been a bit brutal but it's time that someone stood up to be counted on some of these issues. Sorry, yet again, that you drew the short straw.

I like the idea of the shot.
The only thing I don't like about the shot, which has already been mentioned is the lighting on the car, it just seems to fade out (I don't know if it was intentional?) so perhaps some backlight to define the shape of it.
As for what car it is Rhys, it's a 318i, those alloys do however give the E36 away ;p

About all I see is a number plate...agree with most of what Mick says I'm afraid.

Thanks for the comments back. I used the out of focus foreground so the light was seen more easily on the car. I'm not sure but on my Mac screen i can see the car but they are normally really bright especially on full brightness. But i can learn from this. I am happy with the composition though but the lighting does need to be worked on. I've just got my pocket wizards with the flashes so not quite mastered them yet but will.

The indicators gave it away for me, I have an E36 as well (318ti compact)
