Clean looking car and the back ground in those pics really does it for that car, nice photography work too.
Hot, humid air is less dense than cooler, drier air. This can allow a golf ball to fly through the air with greater ease, as there won't be as much resistance on the ball.

A couple of shots of my hybrid. I found it crashed. It was too far gone to save. The front is a 'glass piece I made. My two favorite cars.

The nose is not as long as it appears. I was going for a "coach built" style instead of a custom. The qp's are fromed from a '67 camaro

Here's how my Ghia looked twenty years ago.

Here's how it looks now, though I did get some different hub caps for it that haven't been installed yet. (No it hasn't been painted, the colors are wrong in this pic)

Here are a couple from when I was more ambitious and thinking about mods I'd like to do. (Obviously these are photochops)
