Default Taking Pictures for Classified Magazine Ads

Marketing gurus...

I was just wondering what is the best angle to take a picture for a for sale ad in a magazine.

what angles make the car look the best, even if its a crappy one

visual examples would be great

depends who ur goin after, if its hooked up and ur tryin to sell it that way...just look around and photos round HT, theyre all tight...

if the car is lowered, shots from the ground and at an angle make it look good, if its not lowered, try to stay away from shots that show the wheel gap, again only if ur tryin to appeal to the honda crowd...

Front quarter shot. Where you get most of the front of the car and most of one side of the car. Like this:
