First Impression - the most important one: This is one hot car ... I love the colours and the impression made not only by the car but by the flooring as well.
Composition: This has been done very well, you have managed to capture the vehicle without any major flashpoints ... and it is well positioned in the picutre.
Subject: Defiantely meets my idea of a fantasy.
Technical (Colour and light): fantastic lighting .. and great colours ... I like the effects of the blending on the background.
To grow its vote?: Hard to know really, you scored well above average and it is a good picture. In fact there are only around three picutres in the top 25 that do not have people ... no I am not suggesting a blond chick accross the bonnet though.
Summary: Great shot... fantastic post processing.

Haha, too funny! Besides that I love the way you lit this car up. The lighting on this is excellent in my opinion. Good Luck... and if you need to trade in your wife for a new model please let me know. ;-)
A man can dream, can't he?!? That's my ideal wife too - LOL!!! Stunning capture of a beautiful machine. Terrific lighting & color tones. Loving everything about this shot.
The people milling about in the background (at a car show?) take me out of any fantasy to reality element this might have but points for a well executed photo.
