The back of the car almost looks too long and it also looks a little squished. But it's still pretty decently done.

I also agree about the dithering on a cars surface, it just doesn't work in my opinion.

Just to add another point on the dithering... the main purpose of dithering is to either add texture detail, or to compensate for not having the exact shade you need in the palette. As B.O.B said, cars don't have this kind of texture.

You've barely used solid colours at all for the main body. If the main part of your picture needs to be a certain colour of red, choose the exact shade you want in your palette rather than building in by dithering other colours. Solid colours look better than 50/50 dithered. :)

If you follow me. Not the easiest thing to explain.

Yeah, I really have to practice more on the dithering and I'll look into it. I used 2 pictures of the car, a side and a front view and combined those to make the iso view.

First off, this is a great rendition of the car, but I don't think dithering works with such a smooth texture of that of a car's. But again, it's your choice really. If you do want to keep the dithering, I suggest removing, or changing the 'X' type dithering on the roof of the car, mainly because that pattern of dithering generally doesn't work wonders with anything( unless it's a large piece where it's unnoticable). But my main question is really this: done by eyes naturally, or is there a reference pic?
