A Mid-Life Crisis??


When you go to a showroom with this caliber of automobile in it, it is as if the red carpet has been rolled out for you. With my camera in hand, I discovered that the salesmen thought I was truly interested in purchasing a car and that I would share my images with friends, co-workers, spouse etc. before agreeing to pay the sticker price.

This car is beautiful as was the showroom. With the lighting available, the glossy-white walls and floors, each car looks stunning. Since the color red photographs so well, I headed immediately for this model.

Below I had some fun with the tires. It would be a dream to buy a car like this and probably a dream of the salesman for me to buy this vehicle! Imagine his commission payment?

I learned a few things doing this "shoot". Number one, Target doesn't call the toy aisle a "showroom". Secondly, the salesmen at Target don't get a commission for selling cars like the one above. That is a shame really.
