well to be honest i really cant tell if they're blurry or just really noisy. they're obviously noisy but i cant tell if its coupled with blurriness. i would work on the composition of the photos. just framing the pictures to accent the subject moreso than you have done already and that can be the hardest thing to do when taking pictures. also the lighting in all of these pictures is pretty poor, having better lighting would most likely help reduce the noise in the photos. and i dont think it has to be said but im going to say it anyway, maybe a better camera would help you out a bit but i dont know what you're shooting with right now so its hard to say. they arent terrible but they could use some work. i dont know if that was helpful at all but thats just what came to mind

until you learn more about light levels you should turn your headlights off and try not to shoot directly into a light source. You're camera will automaticly make that the brightest it can thus making everything else too dark. which in turn makes your pics noisey. Granted with time and knowledge you can overcome that.

the pics are blurry, but thats the easiest fix of all, get a tripod... or until then don't shoot past dusk. the real issues like suggested above is working on composition. I like the 1st pic, and the last pic, but the others bore me. A good excercise to understand composition and framing, is one day go out and fill your memory card up with pictures of your car, or of one object. just go nuts. then just review them and you will see which ones catch your eye more then others. For the most part pics that look like you walked up to a car and took a pic aren't going to wow someone. but taking a pic from an angle that someone most likely normally won't be looking at it from is definitely more dynamic.

I don't think a new camera is needed, just better understanding of the one you got, and the features it has.

There is alot stuff i would recommend first one being. Turn off your head lights. They are tough to do and usually throw off the picture when you don't do them right. Second i guess your using the contrast slider... don't do it so much. Work on your composure. Shooting from the ground and having alot of asfault in your picture is no good. There are alot of stuff i could point out but i must go to work. Best thing you could do would buy an intro to photo book.
