I didn't mirror it cuz it gets messed up when I do certain parts so I'm waiting and its already 2 smoothing the doors are supposed to be like that....Other than that is it pretty good for a first since no one seemed to comment on that.

well, I'm no pro, but some things you could to to make it better are like make the windows fit so you cant see white in between them, some of the parts of the car dont really blend in very well and you can see unecessary seams and overlaps of the planes you used, just some suggestions, other than that its nice, I like it,

are you using any references?

Updates fixed the obvious seems still working on the exterior before I do the inside made a quick scene and copied it to render hope you guys like it oh and I fixed the seam of the front tire welds so its not weird as it may look in the pic I dunno I forget lol.
Edit....and fixed the headlights by shaping them more and adding the glass cover.

Thx for the comments I need that kinda support to finish it...about the shiny paint it actually is but I'm using a dim skylight with lighttracer so no shininess but later on I plan on using mentalray cuz of the glass so expect shinyness to come.
