Somehow I missed this one...I love the bright yellow colour here.
I think I would black out the other car next to it tho - just make that a jet-black colour to make the image look clean/sharp.

I'm with Kev on this one, the problem with car shots at shows like this is often the other cars in the background, so sometimes the only way to remove any distractions is by post processing/masking and either blurring or some other method to keep the focus on the car of choice.
A CPL is also very useful in these kind of situations to try to minimise unwanted reflections from the super shiny paintwork (the building reflected in the bonnet and the chrome headlight for example). A CPL's never going to remove them, but can help reduce. Bumping the vibrance on this might also be nice to give the yellow that blast of primary colour that seems a little dulled by the overcast conditions. If you imagine this car in a studio under true neutral lighting then the yellow would likely be a true primary colour without the coour shift it seems to have here.

Sorry, it's a Circular Polarising filter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizing_filter_%28Photography%29
