As a suggestion. Never desaturate something completely. Using levels and blending is quick, but often causes holes in objects, esspecially on cars due to the off color windshields, headlights, turn signals, and general reflections and hot spots. Even if you hand touch up those spots the rest of the image is flat and boring.

That's not to say you can't make part of the image black and white, but if you have ever seen the difference between a black and white image and a desaturated one they are worlds apart. IMO it is better to leave a small amount of color on the background objects, as it lends to contrast. Examples (thanks to the original photographers):

A nice photo

A flat background

Now were artsy

Hopefully that makes sense. Here is another example:

A good picture is taken

The desaturation makes the background boring, but also kills the headlights, windshield, and even more noticeably, the turn signals

A quick touch up to fill in gaps and a little more color

Hope that helps.

My canon has that, the 'Color Accent' feature. Depending on the model when you pick the accented color you can set sensitivity with the up and down buttons.
