New from NC!
Whats up fellas!
New guy here from NC, I just purchased a MY04 Sebring about a month back, and finally got around to signing up today! I'm 21 years old, in school for aviation maintenance, and I work in Flight Test for the Honda Aircraft Co. here in Greensboro. I've been a lurker for a while (ever since I started looking for an S2K about 6 months ago) and am glad to finally be joining!
Purchasing my car was a bit of a nightmare due to the previous owner still having lien on the vehicle, but after almost 4 weeks of sitting lonely in my driveway, I'm finally driving her!
Between going to school full time, and working full time, I rarely have any free time, but this weekend I finally had a chance to detail it, so I washed, clayed, and waxed it! I've ordered a bunch of routine maintenance stuff, and when that gets here I'll be changing all the fluids, greasing the shifter, and applying shin-etsu to all of my seals!
Here's a few shots from this weekend!
Thanks!

'gratz on the car. It looks really good.
It's good to know that a S found a home with someone who cars and will take care of her. If you have any questions, just ask (but search first and ask in the appropriate section
)
There is a Dragonball Run in September if you're interested.

And nice pictures, but it looks like the camera sensor is dirty and needs to be cleaned.

Thanks for the heads up on the DBR, I'd certainly love to make it, but I'll have to see what my schedule looks like!
And Starrman, appreciate the heads up on the cars and coffee, I'll look into it! Thanks!

I said dirty sensor, not dirty lens.
I could be wrong, but it looks like there is dust on your sensor because on the wide angle shots it looked like it used a somewhat small aperture. This allows the dust on the sensor to cast a sharper shadow on the sensor. It's more obvious on in the uniformly lit regions like the sky.

A dirt and scratches on the front lens usually results in minor loss of sharpness and contrast, not the dark fuzzy lines that I think I'm seeing.

If the camera used doesn't have interchangeable lenses, then I'm wrong and should be ignored.
