Ok...Dirty Clay
So I was claying my car today (for the very first time) and that blue clay magic
bar turned all brown. Do I have to shape it to get a clean side or what? How many uses do you guys get out of one bar?

Correct. You have to knead the bar until it's clean. Many people get anywhere from 3-5 uses (maybe more).

i think i read somewhere it is best to break the clay into a smaller piece to shape easier... that and after the clay becomes all dirty, you can use it on your glass...

Yes, break/cut your one large bar into 2 or 3, so that you don't have to worry about dropping it and you have more uses out of it that way.
