    Rolling shots aren't bad, the "over edited" one is actually the best color wise out of all of them. Please never do selective coloring it makes me want to hit children, and is generally tacky. Also refrain from shooting at night in areas with poor lighting. Would be much better if you took the shots during the day preferably in the early morning or late afternoon (golden hour). Apparent from those S2k shots you haven't really posted a proper shoot of a car, so until then I'm done with my comments.

      Thanks for the feedback, Ive always enjoyed viewing your photos. The selective coloring was out of boredom playing with some software. I agree 100% with the night shots, horrible lighting, tripod was sent to japan since I am getting ready to deploy. I will have to try the morning time for shots sometime before I leave.

      Lastly what do you mean by proper shoot? I have no idea sorry just starting out and trying to get better.

      Again thanks for the feedback

        Like a full set of a single car, kinda like the Evo if it wasn't a car parked in a parking lot. Idk how to really explain it, thought it was kinda self explanatory lol.

          Thats what I figured but just wanted to make sure you didnt mean with external flashes and what not, since I do not have any and am not planning on getting any till I learn some more.

          I will try to get a sort of shoot together this week or weekend if possible,

          Thanks again.

            External flash or a tripod w/ a lil patience at night and your outcome will be so much better! The more photos you post, the better they are getting tho! Keep up the good work and you will only get better with time!

                  I actually like the rolling shots of the S2K both the full color and black&white look good.

                          Changing your composition on the last photo by rotating the camera to the right placing the car on the third on the left side of the frame would have helped tremendously. It would have placed the car against the trees only, given the car room to breathe in the photo, and eliminated the light poles... A slightly narrower depth of field would have been nice too. It's all about the composition.

                              Thank you for the suggestion, I actually have some photos of it the same way you are suggesting, I just felt like this made a better photo. I will have to go and check them out again. Thanks again

                                Another fresh edit that I am really happy with, the only thing I dislike about this photo is the light pole and the tree that comes out of the top of the car, this is something I will have to fix next time I go take photos.
