Oh wait.. there is one MAJOR thing i noticed...
Its an AUTOMOTIVE SITE.. WHAT THE HELL..
great site but damn.. talk about not even knowing what the site is about...
i looked at all the pages before i even noticed it was an automotive site.. i thought it was like a software company or portfolio..great site.. but HORRIBLE as far as what the site reads and what its meant for...
its like making football uniforms out of pretty pink and cotten.. they may look good to somepeople but wont get the job done

I really liked the doctored raster images though they distract from the content. I guess that's a compliment! I'm not 100% sold on the solid green, I personally would like a darker shade, but it's not MY site :)
I think the only gripe I have is how the nav falls to the bottom of the movie when moving from section to section. I found it kind of jarring and would have preferred if it had stayed put.Beyond that I like it, very nice work!

See what I mean about being distracted from the content?

great design. especially for a site with little or no content.
You should fix the contact information. align all the phone number and name, right now it looks messy.
Also the indented paragraph looks curved. No clean looking. either make indent more apparent or just line up all your paragraphs to to headers.
Also the paragraph fonts looks too bold. You should de-select bold or chose a smaller size.
otherwise I love it. great work.

Nice concept but I agree with qburt. I thought it was for a design studio,
also the car driving is a bit unrealistic, shouldnt it get slower the further it gets from the viewer.

Christian BothersAutomotive??
Is that brothers in the religious sense?

Thanks for teh feedback.
I agree with the imagery distraction from the automotive motiff, but that it what I wanted to get away from, car images, torque wrenches, and grease. My message was since it was "Christian", I wanted imagery that depicted serene things that you would see because of a correctly working automobile and peaceful imagery that is calm like church.
Good imagery = good people?? Get away from the negative connotation of shifty auto mechanics.

when i i click from location to contact us the contact us images flashes in before the nav drops

Yes in the "Christian" sense, and sexy pixel darn you for noticing the car speed, you are the third person.. As a matter of fact that is the one image I have to change, it is a rights (imagebank) protected image when I went to purchase them today from Photodisc, so that one is gone altogether.

I can't get to the location section from the contact section but while there the contact section will reload if pressed, FYI.

some reason it doesn't load completely

i think some "Arty" photos of sections of a car body would do the same job.
nicely excecuted site though.

beautiful work, really lovely, very nicely put together... but have to agree with previous comments - i spent ages trying to work out what they do - Design is about communication and i dont really think youve been successful on that level.
The car clip lets it down too...

lovely site, but what the hell do they do? Fix cars, sell cars what, something else entirely?

Although I can understand your reasons for the serence scenery and all that good stuff, I still think (and I imagine qburt/sexy would agree) that the images need to correlate a bit more to cars. The road one is actually kind of nice, but how about nice angles of cars or something related to that. If not that, I think the green itself is a distraction.

it rocks man

i would lose the green as well as the whole "serene" idea...focus on what they do...choose more appropriate colors...lose the photos and choose relevant ones...hire a copywriter...on something this grid based if everything doesnt line up it tends to bug me out ( the lines above/below the content do not line up with the nav)
it would be real nice as a portfolio or software site...nice transitions...i think it might be salvageable if you mess with the colors and photos

the site is very nice and i love the subtle animations but the photos have absolutely nothing to do with automotive. i understand the two with the road but the waterfall and forest?!?
me thinks you put those bells and whistles on the site just for the sake of having bells and whistles.... a real no no.
