The Cars
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

Sealed 2025 180gm unnumbered audiophile reissue. Cut from the original analog master tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio and pressed at Optimal Media. Housed in a heavyweight gatefold jacket with a custom obi strip. Includes an exclusive insert featuring a Q&A with guitarist Elliot Easton. A landmark debut that helped define the late-’70s shift into sleek, modern rock, The Cars arrives fully formed—melodic, sharp-edged, and endlessly replayable. Ric Ocasek and Benjamin Orr trade vocals with a clarity that mirrors the album’s immaculate production, while Elliot Easton’s guitar work and Greg Hawkes’s synth lines shape a sound that remains unmistakably fresh.

Anchored by enduring staples like “Just What I Needed,” “My Best Friend’s Girl,” and “Good Times Roll,” the album balances rock urgency with new-wave precision.

A quintessential debut and a pillar of any well-curated rock or new-wave collection.
