I think most consider a NationStates dollar to be equal to a United States dollar.

Well I believe that would be a good thing for realism as it would prevent economies rated as “basket case” from having the strongest currency ever.

Obviously enough, your first start should be a logo. It needn't be too ornate (simple and memorable is usually better, anyway), just an icon and the name of the company in stylised text. Once you have your logo, take one or two of its predominant colours and standardise all of your headers to that colour scheme.
As regards your prose, I think it'd work better without the Wiki-style approach, especially in the opening section. Personalise it. Your company should take pride in its work and in itself; and yet, while you use 'our nation,' you refer to the company simply as 'it.' Make that us and we. Brag a bit. Tell potential customers that you stand out from the crowd, and tell them why.
Your decision not to use dollars is interesting and not necessarily a bad thing, but I'd say you've made it too prominent. "We sell stuff, but we make it hard for you to buy it" is not the first impression you want to give, especially when we don't actually need to check the prices that often. If you flesh out the lead paragraph (depending on how long you intend to make the History, you could move this section [or a summary of it] into your lead to accomplish this), you could make a section on Billing, or whatever title, and explain the preferred currencies and provide your xe.com links there.
I am over the moon to see images of standardised width. A thousand blessings on you and your family.
Add a blank line between each product's heading and the paragraph below it, and another line between paragraph and specs. It makes it all look much tidier. While I'm on that, consider adding a line after each Purchase form's [hr] and before the next header (so [/code], [hr], blank line, Purchase). It might improve it, but that's subjective.
Your Partnership disclaimer is a tad out of place in an otherwise-solidly in-character storefront. This isn't inherently bad, but I don't think you need to break into OOC. My preferred approach here would be to make a header ("PARTNERSHIP") the same size as the Purchase overall header above it, and then two sentences about what you're looking for from prospective partners. Some storefronts present the logos of their partners; that's fine, but because logos are so often of very varying quality and size (requiring you to resize them if you care deeply about aesthetics) it can be a hassle to get right. I use an all-text method in one of my storefronts; find an approach that works for you.
You've clearly put some work into the storefront. Don't stop there: it has potential. You're selling yourself short by bumping with your most recent post, introducing the car; turn it into an advertisement that really tries to sell the car to your audience. Compare, for example, your ad:Now introducing the new Tashkent Snovideniye 2018, a brand new car!
versus the potential:introducing the new Tashkent Snovideniye 2018
a brand new way to drive
Is it great? Not really. I'm not a marketer. I do think it looks better, though, just as a start, and looks are very important in GE&T. They're not essential, but if you're not leagues ahead of the competition in your products and prose, you need to work for it in terms of presentation.
Lastly, because I wouldn't be me if I didn't suggest it: [align=justify] your paragraphs. It's a tidiness thing; you might not prefer it, in which case don't worry about it, but I think it's always worth giving a try.
Hope that helps!

There are things I know I can improve on so can you give me advice on how to describe products well and advertise well? Also creating my own images because the designs ar complex and I don’t have anything good to make it on. Thanks.

You could have readily deleted the second post insofar as no one has posted after you. There will be a button at the top-right of your post to do such the next time.
