You need a tripod and to slow the shutter speed down!

I'm not a huge fan of shooting @ 1600iso at night for cars. It leaves to much to desire in the photo. I would have kept it at about 100-200, and shot in Manual, and control the shutter down to maybe 20-35 and let that camera sit for a few seconds. It takes forever to set up but its usually worth it.

I'm certainly no expert at night time car pictures, this is just from experience. The car looks good though, the color combination is unique!
