GT3 / Z8 (Big Pics)

Yesterday was fun. I was able to borrow a friend's 5D which made for some interesting pictures with the 14mm lens. We waited too long to go out and shoot the cars, so the light isn't anywhere near perfect, but I was able to post-process a few to look acceptable. Everyone was surprised at how well the Z8 was able to keep up with the GT3. The torque of the S62 really helps that car move out, and it wasn't until the GT3 hit its stride in the high RPM that it was able to decisively put distance on the BMW. Both cars are amazing.

I love the Z8.
They surprisingly held their value pretty well over the years compared to other BMW's.
$125K new, but now they're in the $90's-100K's pre-owned.
