Vectorizing (Photoshop)

tips on how to convert a Raster image to a Vector image?

Can I do it with only Photoshop or do I need Illustrator too?

to make a true vector graphic you need illustrator. photoshop is bit map, so it only deals with pixels.

Then how would you go about creating a Vector image in Illustrator?

yeah that's a P I T A

You'd be better off making a 3-D model...you'd invest close to the same amount of time, yet have any angle of the car you want. and you can make it looks cool modifying the body

Gotta disagree, 3D takes WAAAAAYYY more time. Been there, done that.
