The car looks great. The shots are all overexposed though save the last shot which is a little underexposed. What setting did you use when shooting, did you use a tripod, and what was your ISO set at?

If thats a $500 camera you no doubt have some room for adjustments on it. Here is what I would do...

Take some makeshift props with you the next time you shoot. This could be something as small as a few shoe boxes and a few pens. Get the camera up off the ground just a bit, then use a pen or some other form of a "shim" to angle the camera up towards the car. Set the camera on the "A" setting which is aperture priority and set the f-stop (the number you can adjust in this setting) as low as possible. Then set the camera to go off on the timer so that after you snap the shot it'll give the camera a few seconds to steady which will reduce alot of blur and make your pictures more sharp. Lastly play with the ISO on night shoots. Try it at 100 then try it at 400 and look at the difference. Try it at 200 to see what you get in the middle and how it compares then dial it in so that you're getting exactly what you want out of the pictures.

Just those few simple things can get you a great shot.
