Great feature on the Cars (they've actually got a thread hidden away somewhere on MB) Anyway I pretty much agree with everything you've said about them and their debut is probably the greatest new wave album ever released, the b-side of it is legendary especially "Moving in Stereo" probably one of the best intros to a song ever and easily one of the coolest songs from its time period.

I noticed that you've included a number of tracks from the Panorama album which usually gets overlooked. My personal favourite album by the band was always Shake It Up, but Door to Door is worth exploring again as it has some good stuff hidden away. Ric Ocasek's This Side of Paradise is a stunning album kind of a Heartbeat City pt.2 and sure the New Cars sucked with Todd Rundgren in the line-up and I'm a Todd Rundgren fan most of the time!
