I also filled in the rear view mirror and took some brightness off the covertible boot. I also lightened the rear end a bit and made the just the wheels a tad brighter. Well the Noon sun is also part of the problem regarding bright glare.  I don't know if you have done this but check your lens and make sure it is clean..sounds simple I know, but that is something that gets missed often since your using a point and shoot. A dirty lens can cause you problems.  Can you please tell me the model and brand of the camera you are using?I know you work in the evenings, but if you can swing it I'd like to see a close to sunset shot, next time you go and shoot some. The warm sun will be much better light. Give it a try. or early morning is best too, up to about 1/2 hour after sunrise. If you can't then no worries. It's not a car...but show the differences when you use the same position of a scene and just shoot at different times a day.<a href="http://www.pbase.com/joanteno/assignment_2_digital_lighting_photo" target="_blank">http://www.pbase.com/joanteno/assignment_2_digital_lighting_photo</a>Car shooting tips<a href="http://photo.tutsplus.com/articles/shooting-articles/10-tips-on-creative-car-photography/" target="_blank">http://photo.tutsplus.com/articles/shooting-articles/10-tips-on-creative-car-photography/</a> I think you have already outgrown your point and shoot... it's time for a DSLR!!!!Buy used and same some money...For example, I have owned a Canon 10D through 50D and loved them..they are cheaper now and you save some money...you want to put the better money on a quality lens.<a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/SLR-Digital-Cameras/ci/15488/N/4294182649" target="_blank">http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/SLR-Digital-Cameras/ci/15488/N/4294182649</a>I can help you pick out the good stuff when the time comes.</blockquote>
