ok... i have never used blogger before.
what I mean with the white, is that it just seems so much cleaner. I am not a fan of dark website, and your theme just seems like the standard theme.

the colour makes it easier to see, but im talking about the whole layout. it just looks to standard at the moment. I dont know about blogger but wordpress have 1000's of templates that you can choose from that make your blog look semi unique...

Also, some of the headers in the wordpres templates can be customized. Anyway, it looks a bit dull with the new gray color. Not really exciting for a car blog.
I also suggest captions for your photos. The more energetic and unique he better. I would have expected a bit of unique content from you too like more comments about the cars and your opinion for their make. For example, your entry about the Ferrari park is a great topic, but the content is measly. Why not give some other information about the park? Link to their site so you can improve your traffic.
Im sure you have tons of ideas for content. Bring em on.

There is potential there. However you need to write your articles more professionally if you want to make it up there. Be sure to write your articles with Microsoft Word so that you can catch any grammar and spelling errors. One thing I see constantly is that your not capitalizing the first letter after every sentence. Good luck with the site!

I agree with switching to wordpress... here's a few tutorials i found that might help
WordPress Tutorial: How to Use WordPress, WP installation, WordPress themes, WordPress hosting
How to Start / Setup Your Own Blog Using WordPress (thesitewizard.com)
the colors on your blogger site look pretty good, but i also agree with richkid - its a little dull...
I also suggest that you change the content on your blog... i was thinking more along the lines of carversation - you should interview a salesman on different cars.. ask questions tell opinions and then post the audio interview(or a transcription)... i dunno... i just think it should be more of a conversation...

ps... your myspace is ok, I'd suggest making the background pic transparent so that it wont intrude so much on your text... it was extremely hard to read teh white text on top of the black car.

wordpress is really simple to use. And it is very easy to pick up. When you change over you should have very little problems.

the new look is a lot better than the last.
my first suggestion is to fix the text so that it doesnt wrap the pictures and get crammed along the sides. or adjust teh picture size so there more room for the text to wrap correctly.
Also, is there a reason why you put carversation on all the pictures? branding? copywriting? I just think it gets repetitive and obtrusive... maybe by making it a different color...gray maybe?
Hope this helps.

ps. i liked the knight rider post. I would add more info about the movie - possibly link to the movie site list the release date, social events with the new KIT. Anything that relates info ppl want and ur cars....
