Nice shot. There is a "PONY" plate around our way too.

Great shot of the back of the car, I'd be tempted to crop out the background completely and just leave it at that! Great colours and focus, but it makes me wonder how often it needs to be washed and polished to keep it like that....

Beauty. I'd say the sun there probably does a number on the wax and paint.

If you use the right wax/polish you're okay but if you're a miser and use cheap brands you have a problem

Great shot, EM - both full and cropped versions. The full version beautifully captures the flavor of a car show or get-together; were it not for the plates, this scene could have been shot at a car meet here in Texas. The cropped version - obviously - focuses entirely on the car, also a good thing.

Yeah, sometimes you get what you pay for. With Wax, usually the best stuff isn't the most expensive, but it's definitely not the discount bin stuff.
