I feel i am taking all my time to learn and get technique for the cars themselves first..before complicating things. Maybe that is holdng me back a little.. cause i dont think I will ever be 100% satisfied with my renderings..maybe some more detail like interiors etc, will step it up..thanks for the comment and suggestions... appreciated!

I think you'll find that most of us are never fully satisifed with our designs,
but there comes a time when you got to just let go.
It's good that you're following a path for improvement, but maybe set aside some time for experimenting too.
Lemorris is a good example, as he always seems to be testing a new technique to post.
I get many new ideas to use on my own style by studying his and the other great designs in progess work posted in this site.
Why not find some examples of Taylor's, Foose's, or Roth's work and first try making a couple of sketches of the image
to see how you can create the styling.
Once you feel comfortable with that technique, than try creating a new image using that styling.
This is what I do, lots of practice work to see if I like the style/technique.
To me, CAR-tooning is like any sport, it takes repetitive practice to train my hand/arm and coordinate my brain to a new drawing style.
Also, I continue practicing current techniques to maintain my skill level or improve it.
I love to doodle so practicing is never a problem or burden for me.
