haven't figured out what I am going to do about the lighting yet. it near impossible to find images on the web that are 300dpi in size so that when I am done I can print them and for this project print them in a 20x24. I gotta use scanned images, photographs, and images from the web.

I have to say C too but none of them really look right.
None of them look real because the photoshopped car has a different perspective from any of the backgrounds, creating a substantitial visual dissonance. That has nothing to do with the plastic quality of the car, but has everything to do with different vanishing points .
That aside for the moment, C promises to be the most accurate and interesting if you can deal sensitively with the paralex issues. B, to me, appears to be the most real, but due to the lack of the angle wall, has the least visual interst in terms of the background. If quiet background is what you want, B is the answer. If you want a more dynamic backdrop, C will give you that, but tend to the fact that, as the perspective is at the moment, the walls appear to be falling backward.

is the shadow at the end of C what you think makes it dynamic cause I was thinking of cutting that out. also A was originally flipped the other direction.
The car is too big in all of the shots - size it down a tad, that will help - esp for C. Since we're focusing on C - the car needs to be a little lower - right now it looks like its floating about 6" off the ground. You don't have a lot of room to work with at the bottom of that pic, but that's how the perspective is for the angle of the car.

well here is a work in progress of what I am going with. car needs to be smaller still but not much as I dont want it lost as it is the focal point. still trying to get the color I want out of it and blend the bumper into the body better.

That was my first thought, as well.
