These are the settings that I tried last time when bmw1racer gave me the links.

Camera setting: full manual
Aperture: f22
Iso rating: 100
Focus: Auto
Lens: 50mm prime
Shutter speed: from 0.5 seconds up to 5 seconds depending on the shade of the car.
A black car will require a longer shutter speed while a white car can do with a faster shutter speed ... eventually this will come down to experience, but at first you can just try different speeds and see which one works best for that specific model in combination with a specific background."

Thank you guys, I have found how to set the custom white balance
