Rendering in Alias
Showcase is used a lot these days for model presentation rendering. It offers a range of environments to which u can add your own and these can be reflected in the model’s surfs.
However if you wish to create a different feel to your rendering , then Alias offers a sophisticated Rendering Software package.
The above pic.
Background: has been treated with Gaussian Blur in Photoshop and then mapped to the Environment Shader in the Alias rendering Multi_Lister

Body: has a very slightly off-white car paint shader and has the environment jpg mapped to it, as well as being mapped also to a jpg. of sky & clouds
