Re: Is this a real picture or CGI?

It could be either.  CGI is very common in automotive photography
now-a-days 
and with big budgets, are done very well by truly amazing artists.  It's 
actually closer to movie production than still photography.

For me though, this image looks more photography than CGI, compared to a
lot 
other photos I have seen.  But you never know, because at the end of the 
day, the final image has to look like a real product whether GC or 
Photoshopped.
