Post your favorite car related song here and tomorrow I’ll gather them into a bracket and put together a poll for the official Oppo car song.
It can be as related as you want, from models, like Pavement’s Passat Dream, to mentioning a make like Louis Armstrong’s Six Foot Four (“a chick drove up in a Jaguar car”), to just driving, like my entry above, Iggy Pop’s The Passenger.
If your choice has been taken, suggest something else, because I’m too lazy and stupid to bother with proper seeding.
ETA: I wasn’t expecting to get so many responses. Feel free to submit as many songs as you want.
I’ll be hipster about it and throw in Title and Registration.

Good luck with this - there’s already about 15 songs rolling around in my head and I can’t even pick one for myself! Prediction - lots of arguing, some tears, possible blood spillage. Looking forward to it—
