Here's a series of steps to bring more attention to the car's logo and add more pizzazz:

1.

Create a new comp named Letter Box that uses the same comp preset you've been using, with Duration set to 10;00 seconds.

2.

Drag the Master Comp from the Project window into the Letter Box Timeline, starting at time 0;00.

3.

Use the Rectangular Mask tool in Add mode to mask over the Master Comp in a format that looks like a 16:9 letterbox.

4.

Apply the Stroke effect to the mask.

5.

Use the new Text Animation Presets to animate titles in the top and bottom black areas of the screen, above and below the new stroke lines.

6.

Use Opacity keyframes to create a 15-frame fade up of the Master Comp layer.
