Something is not right with this picture...

She looks out of focus to me.

I think the sun is WAY too harsh for this shot. She has wicked harsh shadows on her combined with a little blown out on her left forehead..
The picture is too hot I think.
To much in the background. The shot may be acceptable to some as it is if the background was more void.

The biggest thing wrong with this picture is that someone is sitting on the hood of sweet Dodge Charger

EDIT: remove that front license plate too!!!

Also not sure if that brown field goes well with that color car.

Well the plate was for the dealership that i got the car from. They wanted it in the picture since it was for them. But thanks for the other criticism! I will be redoing this shot

Harsh lighting on the car, not a fan of the houses in the background, front wheels are turned the wrong direction (wheel face should be pointed at the camera rather than the tire tread).

I think her pose is awkward, almost like she's in the middle of bringing her hands up to fix hair. She's squinting a lot.

Not sure why you need to remove the front plate. Honestly it's not a big issue.I can see it maybe on a luxury exotic car to clean up the lines and protect the owner, but there's not much point on a Charger.

For me, the tones are pretty off, really warm, that charger color is a staple for them, I'd try to keep it true to color if you can. I don't care for the vignette, nor the bale on the left, which doesn't really add anything to the image, IMHO. If you can shoot without the houses in the background, either by getting a more shallow depth of field/changing positions, I think it would help. What are you saying by putting the car in the field behind a housing development? (It's hard to say, because I don't know what the assignment was/guidelines, etc). The license plate is fine, but I'd watch other details, like the white thing in the windscreen (photoshop that out, probably), and turning the front wheel, as someone mentioned.
I think the basic crux of it is that you really want the car to be the focus of the shot, and there are too many things competing with it for attention. You have a lot of different colors (the grass is too similar, and it gets lost in it I think, continuing into the orange-ish house on the right), and there are a lot of lines from the homes detracting from the car too. You want the car to be arresting in the photograph; I find my eyes wandering a lot.

Hope this helps! It's only my opinion, so take with a grain of salt

you got that right. The front wheel is turned the wrong way. There are big blotches on the car. It looks weird.

car is parked in a hay field, that's what's wrong! lol.

BG is too busy, and as mentioned, she is oof.
