Any great places to shoot the car in CT?

THE PHOTOS ARE UP NOW. Always looking for the next place to take some photos of my car around CT. Anyone know of something different or exotic around here. I have had some luck up near Groton, down at White Plains Airport, Stamford parking garage, and just some random streets. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

depending there is an underground parking lot or a parking garage on top of target, cove beach next to the pier or even west beach, shippan even, around glenbrook also near high ridge, it also depends on what kind of picture you want we can even go to norwalk or westport at that and take some nice pics at the beaches there, im mostly in bridgeport though but honestly seaside is a nice place to take pics around the summer-time

I have some photos on top of the parking garage but maybe some of the beaches could be nice or any cool buildings.

winter-ish beach shots would be pretty cool. I know compo out by westport has some different scenes and big lots we could use, typically pretty empty during the day..

LMK whatever you guys decide! I'm out in Redding but happy to make the drive.
