White cars are tough to make look good as they seem to suck up all the light & don't have the contrast in the reflections that define the body.
I kind of like #1, but why the wide crop in #2?
The best think I can suggest is to look for cleaner backgrounds: MOVE YOUR FEET!

I think that's what Frank intended to say, maybe a tighter crop would help.

That's it, though it's always better to frame it tighter in the first place.

I always found shooting my old white hatch to be easy to make it look good, now silver is a pain IMO

Clean EP3 I Like :)

Why? Silver is the easiest color to shoot?

Every time i've shot silver it always just glare on the car, now this can be resolved with PP, but I liked white for more natural lighting shoot.
