You don't have to prime your car to paint it any color, but it is always better to prime before painting to give the finish coat better adhesion.

If you paint my car satin black do you have to put a clear coat over it?

No, you don't have to - satin black will work well on its own. Another way is to paint the car gloss black first, and this will highlight any imperfections in the preperation. When you have repaired and repainted the problem areas (in gloss) , the whole car can be wet sanded with 800 grit and finished in satin clear, of the same type, (and preferably brand as well ) as the black base-coat.

Your car is gloss black but you want to change it to satin black... do i need a primer?

If the black gloss is in good condition, there is no need to use primer. Wet sand it with 800 grit, and use wax and grease remover both before and after sanding. Be careful not to sand through the black, and respray the car with either a satin black or a satin clearcoat. Make sure the paint you use is compatible with the existing black paint.
