Default car photoshoots advices needed

because I've got camera (minolta dimage A200, tripod and polarizer), which is finaly good enough for photoshoots (and I've got already signed one for next saturday), I'd like to have as much as possible advices about photoshoots please!!! this is mainly questions for TitanBoy, because his pics are the best on JW IMO :shock:

1) what time of the day is the best for photoshoot?
I know it depends on what kind of weather is that day and many things... but roughly...

2) where the sun should be, when taking pics?
I've got the polarizer, so I just want to know, if it's better to have sun in the back (well, my shadow will be on the pic), or from the side...

3) what speed and F number to use?
again, I know it depends on the light temperature, but still... roughly...???

4) do you always use tripod for the static pics, even when is sunny? (just to make sure pics are sharp)

if you have some more advices, please, share them, as I'm the "half new" in photography and want to be as good as possible (maybe do it as a job). thank you very much for your time
