work on the framing a tad bit....
first picture.... you can see a tiny bit of a car int he lower left hand corner (cropping is an easy fix for it). IMO this ist he best of the set.
2- if your going to take a picture with a large light source in front of you, try and have it blocked out. You halfway did that with the hatch of the tC, but you can still see the sun. massive glare. if you blocked it out, you'd get a neat glow effect.
3- not enough zooming... my eyes arent focused on the car when i glance at it.
4- again, framing. you can completely see all of the cars except for the mustang, and it just doesnt look right IMO.
5- nice shot, i would've moved the camera ever so slightly to the right to get rid of the mustang's door handle being in the shot. easily fixed w/ a slight crop.
6- dont take a picture with a person in it
7- the arrangement of the cars needed to be played with a little bit. i dont like how the tC's antenna covers the type-s badging. also, i think you should've moved the tC forward a bit so that you can see the rear right tire of the silver rsx. bring the shot lower also.... alot of space at the top.

Thanks everyone especially Neothin, I'll keep that in mind next time. I didn't touch any of these pics with photoshop yet so I'm sure they could be made to pop a little more.
And Garmazed, I have to agree, I think what Ford did with the new design is interesting but they didn't quite capture the classic muscle look that they were aiming for.

damn Harrison, this isnt photography class! 
the more he takes the more better he will get at it. photography takes time.
nice tC though, not feelin the white stockers, other than that keep it goin with the Panda theme.

Good shoot... mb a few pointers.
avoid partial car shots, all or nothin baby.
avoid things "growing" out of cars, such as the light pole coming out of the rsx hood, or the port-a-potties coming out of the 'stang.
avoid anything that may draw attention away from your focus. In the first few shots i couldn't help but notice the cut-up plastic fence stuff.
Just my 2 cents

O_O I dont mean to sound bad or mean but the "red" scion makes the tc look a lil bit like a fire truck IMO.
"*dont get me wrong*" aside from that the tc has a nice 'fast' look going for it, maybe i'm an old timer? onno i would have made the scion banner white. Aside from that, me likes!
