Default to edit or not to edit, that is the ?

This is my first time editing a photo and picture post EVER. Basically i just hit auto white balance and auto tone control. What i wanted critiqued is if i should even edit this picture. And i would love any feedback on the picture itself: any advice on framing, aperture, anything.
the shot is taken at 1/15 at f/5.0 with a focal length of 36 and an ISO of 100.

This is straight from the camera

That's really good straight from the camera, but I like the edited one better. The parking deck looks better in that one. The only editing I would recommend is getting rid of the license plate. It really takes away from the car for me. Overall I think it's a good shot.

Ether is good, the bottom looks a little more friendly. Why the blocking out of the license plate? I see that all the time on TV and wonder what people are worried about -- someone will steal the car because they saw the plate number in a photo? Identity theft? How is that possible? And if so, you would have to drive around with the license covered.
