So I just put a coat of Reje-X on the Audi R8 today (pics with Nikon D90) *NO 56K!*

Today was a busy day.... from 12 midnight to 3:30 AM, I cleaned the R8 and put a layer of Reje-X on it, and it looked stunning (I did this because my S5 was supposed to hit the dealership on Monday, so I wanted to take some pics of it next to the R8, but my dealer informed me that the boat has been on a customs hold for the past week, which would have been nice to know since every day I called my dealer since last Monday, he kept saying its on a truck and on its way, and will be here by Monday, ugh!). That morning, I went to best buy to pick up a Nikon D90 and then went to the dealer to see when my S5 is coming, so when I came home, the car was kinda dusty/dirty, which really sucked because I wanted to take some pics of the R8 in the original Reje-X coat... oh well. I used a microfiber towel to do my best to remove the dust and dirt that I could without spending too much time on it, and then I took pics of the R8 with the D90. Anyways, here you go:

Thanks... Once my Audi S5 comes in, I am going to wax the R8, S5, Benz S550 AMG, my friends Maserati Grand Tourismo and my other friends Aston Vantage, and then put them all around the circle for a nice photoshoot. I also got a camera/camcorder car mount, so I am going go get a remote for the D90 and take some cool driving pics or vids.
 
You have quite a collection of fine autos. There's a lot to keeping a car pristine. The search button can be your best friend.

Must be nice!! lol. Where in NY you live? Im in Suffolk County. Car looks hot.
 
I can't wait to see pics of the S5.



Audi has really stepped up their cars this year and I am very impressed with everything that they build now.
 
No, I live in Westchester County, just north of NYC.



I also made a youtube vid with my Nikon D90 and a manforodo car mount... I think it came out kinda nice. I wasn't driving around (just in my driveway) because I don't know how well I can trust the car mount, especially since there was a lot of dew which could cause the suction cup to move and then fall off, and I didn't want to break my D90 the day I got it, lol... anyways, here is the vid:

Very nice setup you've got there! Did you say in my Viper post that you've got residence in Pittsburgh as well?
 
Awesome pics. I love the R8. I got a chance to drive one and it's such an incredible car.



Your home is magnificent.
 
Lol the house is taking away from the car, if that is possible. What a beautiful car, love the colors, great pics, can not wait to see the S5 when you get it.
 
I use an old Nikon D70S and I still love it. Your D90 takes awesome shots. Might be time to upgrade!!! Upgrading to an R8 ain't a bad idea, either!



[car mounts are a leap of faith - my hat is off to you]

Yeah, I go to Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh, so I am there from Sept to May, but I took a simester off due to health issues.

Well that's no good...sorry to hear that. I get over to Pittsburgh quite often for work.
