I've had good luck shooting night photos by setting the camera on something firm or tripod, turning off the flash and using the self timer to take the shot.
Which model do you have exactly ?

If you want a good night scene with the angel eyes it helps to have someone in the car turn them on only for say a second or so even though your exposure time might be longer. Without this they end up too bright like in my night pics:
