Default Superblack track pics

Had some time to take some pictures of my stock Z today. I'd appreciate any feedback, especially criticism. Thanks guys.

It was a Canon D60 SLR with a not-so-good Canon lens. I have no money to slam her ( I would love an HKS Hypermax II kit so bad ), but I'm looking to drop her with some RS*R Ti2000 springs soon. This way I don't have to deal with camber too much, it's only a slight drop.

Don't know if you figured it out yet or not, but it's a B&W pic :P

Since you asked for criticism..
.
study your backgrounds as much as your subject. For example, the pole in shot two is an eyeshore and creates a distracting reflection. Same with shot 3 (close up of wheel); The parked cars in the background and reflections make an otherwise artful shot, ordinary. I'd also suggest trying to shoot during the morning or late afternoon hours to avoid the harsh overhead light...this would also have the bonus effect of introducing some much needed color into the shot since the car is black.

Great criticisms, and I do take all of them into consideration. My photography teacher also advised me to get a polarizing filter to elimate the reflections altogether. You were right in calling the colors too harsh: it was about 11am and I was just leaving the Nordstrom's parking lot in the Brea mall, since I had my camera with me I decided to snap some pics. Notice the car is all in one position too. I only moved it one time, didn't get too much time to consider other angles.
