Looks as though your view down the Z axis is set to 'front'.
Set it to 'rear' and you should see the correct orientation. |

Because when you model the car, you are modelling it looking into the positive Z axis (i.e. looking from negative Z to positive Z). Therefore you are looking from the rear of the model.
Seems kind of counterintuitive I know, but you soon get used to it and it does make sense when you think about it for a while. |
