I wil start from 7th : Car framed right dead in the center .Picture is nice ,but can be improved if car was slightly towards right .White colour looks washed out too .
6: Abrupt cropping of bMW looks vague.
5 : its ok ,but bit more steering would be nice .
4th :ok..nothing much there
1 & 3rd :I liked
Note : Instead of too much use of PS IMO you should concentrate on compositions right now .

I like the 2nd and 3rd shots because of the lighting and tones.

For 1, Ill give you an idea.

Keys portray a certain emotion. Capture that. Dont hold just in front and click it. Also you can shoot the key on a texture. Try shooting it on those steel Franke Sinks. that creates beautiful texture. If you have wooden tables shoot on that. Key is the KEY to pure thrill.So portray it that way.
For Second, What I will prefer is his photo minus the Sign. Right now I am confused to see him since the blurred logo is hitting me first. Yes he possesses the Merc and BMW but this doesnt work. ON that same concept you executed no 6 properly.That conveys what you want to say.
Third one is good.
Fourth one is my Fav.Love it.
For fifth I already told you.Flare aint working.not for me.
I gave you an idea for 6th.keep the cars in a V shape and put him in the middle.That will really show Glam.
The last works out. Re-edit and see if things get better.Try out different versions.

Not commenting on the compositions for now as I haven't had a lot of time to look at the images, but your shots are consistently getting overexposed. You really have to watch the histogram, especially when you're shooting predominantly white subjects. Use exposure compensation as necessary to prevent the blowouts seen in the shots currently.

Interesting study.
1. First is good. But agree with Anvancy... the keys have to portray an emotion.
2. 2nd is good too as an idea but... I would put the logo at one corner and work the portrait sharp at another and concentrate on the portrait. That seems to be the idea there.
3. 3rd and 4th are my favs. 3rd more so.
4. 7th is nice. But I would have placed the car a little more to the right.
5. I would however add that your photographs are not correctly exposed. I fully agree with first Synn that they are quite over-exposed other than the ones where the portrait is important.
