Your perspective and style is good, I would like to give two suggestions regd this rendering

First of all, the background is too striking which hides the car, Use some contrasting color between the car and background.

Try using some tones of colors on the car by considering the light, shadow and reflections- with this you can bring out the 3d effect to the car, which then will shout by itself for attention.

This looks neato but I have some reservations. I agree the grey background completely obscures the grey car, and makes the car look about 50 feet tall relative to the scale of the rocks. The front view seems to be driving into the quarry wall. The perspective on both is a bit funky, perticularly on the rear view where the far side seems to hang out too far. The tyres seem very small relative to the width of the car, and you wouldnt be able to see the far alloy on the rear view.
The paintwork is very flat and doesnt show the light and reflections you would expect, and the windows look opaque.
In the front view the roof seems to have a Discovery style hump not evident in the rear.

From an aesthetic point of view the lines are more like the curvy ones of recent Seats than the sharply tailored lines of Audis, although I think the rear works bettr and I like the rear lights.

I'd work on learning the way perspective, proportion and reflection works before intergrating the car into a background. Find images of cars in the perspective and lighting you wish to render yours in and study how their surfaces work.
Good work so far but some points to think about. Keep it up.

hey!

shouldnt an A3 be on a street or highway background rather than dirt and rocks? should check it out, depending on the idea you are trying to proyect.

the perspective is funky, since the windshield is too far back, it should be more vertical, not even the honda civic´s looks like this ( I have the same problem).

you should also add more contrast to the sheetmetal and the windows. the design is very cool, kinda looking like the shooting brake but better Smile.

try adding the Audi badges to the car, it will make it look more real.

good luck, tada
