1. i like the Cars but i saw them live and it was literally the worst sounding concert
i've ever been to, The Cars are a studio band, a good one but live---terrible.

2. They stunk up the joint on SNL a few years back.
It was godawful noise. And I like the Cars.

4. I agree: I saw them on their first tour after the debut album and they were horrible...
Roy Thomas Baker's production work was sorely missed
And it's not as if they could make up for that shortcoming with their non-existent stage presence.

5. "It's all mixed up" from their debut album
Saw them way back in 1980, too. Terrible live band.

6. Saw Them live. The sound was perfect. It was outdoors.
They sounded great, but zero stage presence. Totally detached from the audience. It was outdoors,huge show. But excellent technically.

16. I'll say "Moving in Stereo"
"Hello Again" is also good. Actually, any Cars song I've heard is good; I've just mentioned my favorites.
