Welcome to the photog forum!
In my former life, I had to deal with car photogs as part of my job, and black was always the preferred color of choice for a car. Extremely difficult to set lighting and avoid the (wrong) reflections, but when done right, the best looking color on any car.
That said, I'm missing reflections on your TT. It looks dull. What happened? Besides that minor point, it looks very clean and reduced, and I prefer the blue version.

Welcome! I like the first one, but it looks like it was taken close to midday. I would be stronger shooting later in the day with the sun behind you. That would add some light to the lower parts of the car and open those shadows some.
The second one I don't care for. Spinning wheels are fine if the background is also in motion. The sky is overdone.
The third - you're out of washer fluid. :-P How'd you mount the camera? You could have gone a tad shorter on the exposure time to reduce extraneous movement. These type of shots are difficult. Rob O did this a while ago and took many tries to get a great one, IIRC.
The first shot also appears to have some distortion towards the right side/corners. You'll get less distortion if you back up more and zoom in with the lens - unless you were really using a wide angle and going for that look.
Just my $0.02.
