Yes, I can also tell what it is even if I didn't know what you drove.

Who doesn't have a portrait of their car though? That's the photo that you frame, and put on your desk at work next to your girlfriend's picture...
The other shot; however, is a great shot for interest's sake. The photo is mechanically a fantastic photo, and the car ties off all the loose ends! The exposure and lighting create a mood, leaving me with thoughts of an automtive 'Fight Club' setting. Then perhaps the most interesting of details is the arrow pointing to the car! I love the gritty feeling of this photo, and I for one would want a photo just like it of my car! Is this with the Canon 10-22mm?
Keep taking these kinds of photos! Everyone can take a picture of their car, but how many people can use their car to make the picture just a little bit better?

EG: I'm guessing he used the 17-40mm since he has a full-frame camera.

back when the 5D didn't exist, 17-40 on a 10D and Rebel was a good
combo for what it was, and at the time... before EF-S took the
share of the market. but for sure, on FF, it releases the full
potential!

To do it in camera you've got to have years of experience, like 3-4 years or something. All kidding aside, you can take the photo in Shutter priority and Manual mode. In shutter priority, set the shutter to anywhere between 1/30th-1/70th of a second depending on how fast the car is moving. The faster the car is moving, the faster the shutter speed (but to blur it you should be under 1/80th or between the range I mentioned). Then just practice following the car and shooting at the same time. If you have continuous focus, turn it on and keep it focused on the car. I prefer to shoot in manual because you can then change both the shutter and aperture and not have to worry what the output would look like, shutter priority will guess the aperture for you.
If you only have a P&S camera w/ manual settings available, dial in the settings, pre focus at the point where you want to hit the shutter, then follow the car and hit the shutter where you pre focused.

If your car didn't have silver wheels, it'd look weird in that pic .
