get lower down, take it where there is less background and try and get it with light coving most of the car rather than one side bright the rest in shadow. also you may want to move a bit to the right so you can't see the drivers side tyre and move slightly back to give a bit more space round the car

i think he means a blank background like a warehouse wall or something blank looking - if u have alot going on in the backgorund it draws your eyes away from the acctually object cos u wanna know whats going on behind it
