Ok, I need help please, I'm going to buy a few filters tomorrow. I shoot mostly automobiles, I want polarizer filter because it takes the reflections off or I think it does that :P.. I'm going to an autoshow soon, would polarizer do good in indoors at the autoshow?
What are other filters that would be useful?

A polarizer won't remove all reflections but it can usually be adjusted to remove the worst of them. But it will also cut down on the light. I prefer to take autoshow pics without flash so that is usually unacceptable. For one thing, flash will be harder to polarize out of the pic. Secondly the lighting that is used in auto shows is very well placed to make the car look as good as possible so you really should take advantage of it.
Seriously you may want to experiment with the polarizer but I don't think any filters are necessary.
