Ah, we all know you're just an Ocasek fanboy!
Seriously, I think it's a great album, hardly any bad tracks although yes, like some of Ocasek's stuff it does borrow riffs from well-known songs, but even then it does that well. I was impressed with the album, personally.

And I'm sure it won't be popular with people here, but my own favourite Cars has to be "Heartbeat City" (who said BOOO?) with "Door to door" running a close second. Did not think much of the "comeback" album last year however...
