- Support as nominator – Alborzagros ( talk) 13:14, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
- Comment – Normally the year (Baujahr) of the car would be included. Since the 507 was built in the late '50s, confusing that it's pictured at a 2009 car show. Also, detail (focus) doesn't seem quite what one would expect from this large a file. Sca ( talk) 15:22, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - Strikes me as perhaps a tad oversharpened. This is particularly evident at the top of the windshield. Also, I agree with Sca; we should have the year of the model too. — Crisco 1492 ( talk) 23:28, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
- I didn't find the year of production but it was being manufactured from 1956 to 1959. I thing it is no big deal the exact year. Alborzagros ( talk) 05:12, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
- I'm not a car person, but I do know that there are occasionally significant changes to models between different years. This isn't like we're asking for an exact year for a five-hundred year old painting. — Chris Woodrich ( talk) 05:27, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
- Let's take a look at here [1]. It reveals the year of car that is 1957. What's your idea about here [2]? 1959 is shown but the shape and appearance of both cars are the same. ----- Alborzagros ( talk) 07:10, 19 May 2015 (UTC)-----
- Those photos [3], [4] and [5] claim that car is from 1959, don't they? Alborzagros ( talk) 08:52, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
- Crisco here. We could try asking the photographer. 36.73.111.104 ( talk) 10:37, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

- Support I am a bit of a car person, it is not necessary that models change every year. Most of the high end automobiles undergo only performance/components upgrades throughout their lifetime, not a major facelift or an exterior redesign. The article says that there was a Series I and II. That should be cleared up, though both of them would be indistinguishable from the outside. -- Fauzan ✆ talk ✉ mail 02:59, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
- I'd probably support if we had at least that much. — Chris Woodrich ( talk) 07:41, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
