You need to work with photoshop and change some settings like:
Levels, Hue / Saturation, Brightness/Contrast, well basically color-correction.

There is not really a tutorial around for stuff like that, you need to play around with the settings..

Well basically, if you want the best effects with composition then you should be looking to make a HDRI image of your chosen background image. That way you can get the correct reflections, but to make best use of the HDRI you should make the car Materials as realistic as possible.

Take a look at this, its exactly what your looking for.

IMO, first I would probably re-take the picture (not thru a window or clean the lense), I agree with HouHou on the HDRI, then there will be a bit of post work in Photoshop.
great concept, great start.

I agree,
Also, when you render the car, be sure to surround it with primitives that represent the object on your real photo, that way the shadows come out right.
If your working in 3DSMax, there is a little help. I'll try to look it up, cos i am not good at this.
Basicly its this: you put the picture as a background and then you use 3DSMax to simulate the same light settings and to align the camera to this picture. But like i said, ill look it up, cos i am totally noob at these
3D programs (among others).
