Will this be sufficient for this use? Any recommendation other assessories that would be helpful?

You'd want a ND filter for long(er) exposures during the day and at night that wouldn't be possible otherwise because of how much light there is. ND filters are basically sunglasses for your lens. There are graduated ones, too. My bet is that you don't need one.

But I'd recommend getting a CPL for that glare and reflection reduction and saturated blue skies! https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Circular-Polarizer-Lens-52/dp/B00XNMXNV0 is cheap and should give you an idea of the hows and whys in real life shooting situations. If you decide to get a 35mm f1.8 dx lens, your filter will also fit by the way, both are 52mm in diameter on the front.

Yeah, the 50mm is a mild tele on a crop sensor - perfect for some things, but a bit restrictive. The 24mm is great, and so cheap that it's hard to go wrong with it. Won't even save any money getting it used.

For cars (or other highly reflective things), a polarizer filter is a really great accessory. The pancake doesn't rotate as it focuses so it makes it easy to use.

52mm thread. Amazon has them for $10. Get a little step-up ring and you can use it with your nifty fifty too - which is very usable for car photography too, lots of opportunity for close-ups there.
