Uhm. testing at night isn't probably the best idea. Much easier to learn all the focusing, framing and general setting play with daylight before venturing onto the hard stuff.
(the fact you have a black car won't help, especially if your camera can't be manually adjusted since black cars usually drive crazy the light sensors)
In the shots you posted, basically there is a lack of light. What exposure time did you use? You should anyway use a longer one and in that case, try to avoid direct light sources in the frame
Keep testing!
BTW, the rules say (and that's the 100th time I post this) you can't directly link to imageshack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, it's quite easy, the camera thinks the perfect exposure contains mainly 18% grey. Green grass during the day for example, is quite close to this. A photo with a black car will be overexposed, whereas a white car will be underexposed. That is assuming you use either spotmetering or center-weighted-metering.

Correction made to the post, thanks for the warning!
My camera is only a Canon Powershot A300, it doesn't let me change much things.
The only things that I can change are:
Type of light, Iso Speed, Effect (black, sepia, etc), quality of picture and size of picture.
About exposure, i used the normal, i can change a little bit the exposure but the time of it, it won't change.

Oh, I see. Indeed if you can't let the shutter open for a long period of time, there isn't much you can do sadly for night shots
