Pardon my n00bishness, but I don't get the 12-exposure thing. Why so many? Again, I am new, but couldn't a photo like this have been created with just one exposure and a lot of "brush work" in LR and PS? Or maybe blend 2 or 3 exposures and a little less work in LR/PS?
One thing that bothers me is the bright areas of the background above the car. I think there could also be a happy medium in the background exposure levels between your first and edited versions - one is a tad too much, the other too little. And the perspective on the car... a little more to the right and you could have removed any doubt what that "hump" is in back and given the viewer a more obvious tailight-is-on look. I might have also tried to add some shine, somehow, to the body side. It just looks too flat or dull.
Interesting assignment you gave yourself.

Thanks for the thorough explanation.I didn't NEED 12. But I don't see how I could do it with only a few.
I only mentioned it once, but others mentioned it too. I think it's prob'ly a spoiler or body wing of some sort. Your perspective to the car makes it look like a kind of growth on the rear window. I might have tried to get more profile of it in the shot, so it would be more obvious - and you wouldn't have to squint to see the taillights either. And someone mentioned the tires - they might look more dramatic if they were deeper black, instead of the medium gray they appear to be now.Unsure what this "hump" you keep mentioning is.
I noticed that too. The layer is set to lighten, maybe I'll play with it more.Love the detail on the car, especially the horns (?) in the grille. One thing I've noticed in every edit so far is some grey darkness clinging to the headlight flare. I would have no idea how to fix it though
Edit: also the roof spoiler looks like a roof spoiler to me. I don't think it looks out of place or like a weird 'lump' at all, but maybe that's just me
