Okanagan Photoshoot Location

Need some suggestions for a location:

I am putting together a photoshoot for a white S2000. Ideally it's shot in the Okanagan somewhere. The location hopefully meets the following criteria:

- Primary: It;s obviously Okanagan (i.e. shows Lake Okanagan, vineyards, something like that)

- Secondary: Ideally showcases the performance of the car, like a windy road.

Any suggestions?

(This is also posted in the photo forum)

Thanks

i would suggest a night photoshoot near the airport just outside where they store all the bi planes...theres barely any traffic there at night and even if there was, theres a little road to bleed out the side

That's highway 3A from Keremeos to Penticton.

I would not suggest the airport for taking photos, there are far far better places. (I would know, I spent 4 years driving around looking for fun roads when I was working on my commerical pilot's licence in Kelowna)

The most picturesque road that I can remember is along Carr's Landing. It's a 15 minute stretch with water on one side, mountains or orchards on the other.
