This is a pre-release shot of the 2004 Porsche Carrera GT - that's why it's got the cover on it. Release date is Monday, so unfortunately you don't get lots of shiny metal. It'll be different from almost all shots in the challenge, and will score like it was a mistake. Probably.

awesome, I had no idea what this was and didn't want to read your explanation with purpose: it's a fantastic photo leaving so much place for imagination!
I am impressed with the mystery effect. If you had not provided a summary I would have not been able to guess... Different and forces the viewer to question...
oh man, that sucks. the fact that it was under-wraps, i'm not referring to the picture itself. I went to the moto-expo on Friday the 18th, and there it was; shiny, silver, mean, GORgeous! took LOTS of pictures of it (and all the other cars - highlight of te day was sitting in the Bentley Continental GT - felt very Penelope Keith). one of the most perfectly design cars ever (i'll put a couple on the portfolio tonight after THE game), though it had different colour wheel nuts on each side, which i thought was odd. however, your shot is still interesting different enough, technically decent, so i'm surprised it scored less than 6.
Good subject. The lines in the car cover's fabric and natural shape of the rear-view mirror really draw the eye across the photo. Lighting and composition is nice too.
