Went over to my mates for dinner, whilst waiting i thought i'd drive to the top of his parking garage and snap a few quick pics of my car.
Decided to take B/W shots..
Let me know what you guys think :)

Not bad angles, #1 and #2 are bad light wise, flash could have helped.
I presume that you did not use a tripod for the camera. Little fuzzy in #2
Liking the bottom shot.
#1 and 2 were shot in wrong side, as u could see u did it from the shadow side and they didn't look right.
when doing nite and flash photography, the most important thing to think is your light source and how it balance with ur object. when shootin without flash, i prefer to shoot in very even lid place, so highlight and shadow are well balance. i have shoot in the same location many times, and i can tell you its not a good place to shoot cars without external lighting + the colour cast were pretty extreme (i guess thats why you did them in black and white) but even in black and white, you can still tell the colour wasn't rite, its a bit too yellow/orangish.
wide angle and car can bring some interesting perspective, but again, the shadow (#3 and 4) were bit annoy.
