Definitely NOT #3. The background is horribly ugly (hurts my eyes to see all that asphalt and utility stuff). You would do better with 1 or 2.

Actually #2 is the only acceptable one. #1 is too harsh with that bright sun coming off the asphalt, and you got way too much signage in #3.

if number one had the pic taken at a angle showing more of the car, as in the camera not pointing up from the ground as much i think it would make a perfect shot. the third one, if the backround was more pleasent would also be nice. or.... bad azz also

more like the post above.

The first two are what are called snap shots... they lack any story, and have poor dynamic range.... while #3 tells a story, there are some things going on that seems to tell a story... the burnout on the road way, the signs in the background.. the pictures lacks dynamic color range... which could be fixed with a little digital drakroom.
But # 3 is a 6 on a scale of 1 -10 where as the others are a 4.

Just some honest critique as requested

I say retake #3, close the door, roll up the window and put just a bit more smoke around the tires and then you have a keeper!

#3 looks good, but I would paint-out all of the signs in the background, then crop and enhance the photo quality, or even better yet as somebody else had already mentioned...just re-shoot the photo altogether.
